Can anyone tell me what the best way to deal with a solicitor who simply will not do what he is asked?
We are 3/4 of the way through a house purchase with him and he is also dealing with the draw down of a mortgage for a house build.
He has all our papers etc so we cannot pull our business from him.
Is there a complaints proceedure for solicitors who do not do what you ask.
He keeps cheques for weeks at a time before releaseing them.
He has just informed me he has posted us a cheque for 200K knowing full well we won't get it now before Christmas due to Christmas post......
He is so incompetant and is making us look bad in our dealings with people as every single legal requirement e have had of him he has been late completing and I have had to follow him up and call to him a number of times.
I will obviously never use him again but he stands to gain a considerable fee for his supposed services.......
If this were any other type of service I know I would not pay!
