  • I'm a newbie on this site - but this all seems
    a bit vindictive and even a bit racist - " Muslim
    community" - " ugly mug" etc.
    This seems a bit like a witch hunt.

    I never had any problems with him.
    Could he have been ill or something and taken
    advantage of?

    Look matey, if you are him or you know him or work for/with him then tell us.

    Any genuine insights you can add to the debate are more than welcome.

    If not, I'd leave it.

    If you believe it is racist then please report it accordingly. I don't think MSE would stand for racism. I'm not sure the word "Muslim" is a racist term though.

    If you can provide information that suggests the individual in question is being hard done to, bring it to the party.

    Nor did I mean it in that way and if anyone thinks differently, then I apologise. Ugly mug (as in mugshot) was just a joke, he's quite good looking actuallyicon7.gif

    What's more IH did what I asked in the final days of Wolstenholmes for which I am grateful.

    Perhaps he is a scapegoat but only time will tell.

    The word 'muslim community' is not a racist term in my opinion.

    I am sorry to say but Imran Hussain and his solicitors don't deserve any sympathy.......
  • ugly mug? actually, i think he's quite foxy and a decent lawyer! he acted for me on a litigation matter and was really helpful. So..............bit of a which hunt really.....

    Good Lord!

    Another first time poster springs to the defence ...

    Jessica, are you a plant by any chance?

    Readers ... I suspect there will be more!
  • RR Phantom posting on another thread is also blaming us all for using Wolstenholmes, saying we are cheapskates for using a firm that charges £99

    RR Phantom

    Cant understand why you keep saying £99. No-one on any of the threads about Wolstenholmes have only paid £99. Is that perhaps inside information on how they ran their service. In fact WH's quote wasnt the cheapest one I got, I very unfortunately believed the Wolstenholmes website that they were a long established law firm since 1818. At least now in future I will know to check out every forum going and see what I can find out about a company before I use them. Sadly I thought I could trust solicitors. Hope this whole episode has not dented my faith in human nature, honesty and hardworking individuals too much.
