    Just an update, I spoke to a lovely lady from the SRA who phoned me today, she says they are taking all the complaints they received about BW Legal very seriously, and this is now going higher. They are going to keep me updated at every stage. I shall of course keep you all updated! She seemed rather concerned by one or two of my issues with them and has highlighted my case.

    Pinky, thank you on behalf of all the people having to fight this rogue solicitor.

    You know, back in time, Henry VIII put his trust in Thomas Cromwell.

    It took a while but Cromwell was executed on 28 July 1540 for treason.

    The similarity is awesome
  • Brilliant news Pinkychick!
  • Lets hope they are booted into oblivion.

    I couldn't have done this without all your help - you're awesome.
  • Not a lot to report - I received two letters from BW Legal, one saying that I needed to pay to or else, and one dated a couple of days later saying they would be in touch again shortly as the SRA had contacted them. Nil since.

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    [FONT=&quot]Below is part of the reply I got from SRA
    Its a standard reply, they say they have identified a problem with this firm & will get back to me within 25 days -- i am still waiting

    [FONT=&quot]So do not pin your hopes on the SRA [FONT=&quot]doing anything to help
    [FONT=&quot]I think Lamilad has had dealings with this lot and got nowhere
