Thanks guys for your responses.
I queried my solicitor about his 'over friendly' approach with the opposing side and I got a firm dressing down. 'I will not have a client tell me how to run my practice and will not always cooperate with everything you ask me to do'. That pretty much told me!

I would be changing my solicitor, if anyone spoke to me that way I would be sure that they wouldn't be getting any of my money.
Why?
What's wrong with what they said? sounds more assertive than rude.
Well, they say we shouldn't tar everyone with the one brush (and of course that's true) but there are major issues with the legal professions in this country. It has taken the IMF to tell us that we can't have them 'self-regulate' themselves.They appear to be forgetting that their client is a customer.
In theory - and taking an ethical standpoint, then your absolutely right. However, do you believe that it plays out that way given the current state of the legal profession?Clubman said:I thought it was a case of clients instruct, solicitors act - regardless of their personal dealings and relationships with their colleagues?
