1. LCRO 186/2017 and 84/2018 WE v VF (28 May 2019) [pdf, 190 KB]

   ...had previously acted for the defendant she was prosecuting. [100] It appears that Mr WE finally decided to withdraw from the case when Mr UH presented Mr WE (through his agent) with copies of the legal aid invoices I have referred to above. [101] In my view Mr WE should have made enquiries of legal aid at the outset, to see whether he had in fact acted in the past for Mr VF. Given his then substantial criminal legal aid practice, that was an obvious line of enquiry. It would have...

   ...our view, it is not a transgression of the Professional Conduct and Client Care Rules if a licensee expresses personal opinions in this type of context. Our view is that the Committee was correct in finding that this charge was not proved. [101] The remaining aspect of the email of 29 January 2018 concerns the offensive words used in that email. The Committee concluded that in making that statement, Ms Cruickshank engaged in unsatisfactory conduct. There is no appeal against that...

6. LCRO 05/2018 ZZ v XX and WW Lawyers (26 September 2018) [pdf, 232 KB]

   ...which the time recorded by Ms XX, reflected time spent. [100] The event which significantly contributed to Mr ZZ’s sense that he had been unfairly treated by his lawyers, was the decision made by the lawyers to deduct fees from funds held. [101] It is fair to say, that Mr ZZ was outraged when he learnt that fees had been deducted without, he says, his knowledge or his authority to do so. 17 [102] The extent to which he felt aggrieved is accurately gauged both by the manner...

   ...29 BD 560. [100] As the Committee noted, there is no doubt that Mr Beatson considers there were short comings in the production of both editorial and photographs which were the work of the second respondent’s marketing team.30 [101] But the Committee’s doubts that Mr Beatson had a complaint about the roadside signage amply illustrates the difficulties of undertaking an assessment of this issue.31 There is room for differing judgements on an issue of this kind. It wo...

   ...While this may digress from the issue whether Mr HB ought to have followed up his 2 December 2009 letter, it does illustrate the difficulty in drawing any conclusion about Mr JWS’s testamentary intentions from his failure to respond to Mr HB. [101] In summary, Mr HB had requested Mr JWS’s further instructions, namely, confirmation of [Mr HB’s] understanding of Mr JWS’s telephoned instructions before preparing the proposed 2009 will. In my view that would necessarily include...
