I am shortly to shake the East Midlands banking world to its very foundations. I am most displeased. Got a stonking refund from my solicitor though. More cash in the Hartog stash to paraphrase a wealthy poster of yore.
RE: How come? The refund ? Apparently my solicitor has got back some dosh I paid the other parties solicitor for legal disbursements (sp ?) and they'd also over estimated their fees on the amount of work to be done. I can afford them cuban heels now.
good God They over estimated??!! You got money BACK from a solicitors? You really are one in a million
I almost fell off my chair at that. A certain solicitor working for a certain company I may know is so useless that he re-does every draft up to 8 times. A simple procedure, that is handled in 3 or 4 days when he's on holiday, takes him 3 weeks. He got made an associate, or summat, cos he was bringing in such vast amounts of cash ... and the clients never questioned why they were getting such ridiculous bills. I made all that up. Something like this could never happen in the UK Legal profession.
Are you implying that's me? I demand a retraction in Gardeners World magazine and a 10p mix up in damages
I never even mentioned you. And you can't sue a nickname. Tell you what - I'll apologise in the Big Issue & let you have a pair of Spackybacks best knickers that she keeps at ours for 'special occasions'. Will that suffice? Can I have your address so I can send them to you?
