I would assume they will be totally competent, though you don't need to find a Top XXX law firm to find good lawyers. It's the strength of your case that matters first and foremost, then a lawyer who understands your position. That can come from a two partner firm in any place.

oh I know that the firm im using is not a top 200 firm but the solicitor im using has worked in many of them and her success rate is excellent.

I hadn't heard of them so was really just getting some thoughts on them. My case is very complicated and will be a challenge. Due you practice?

[Grandad7184]

No I've appointed my solicitor and barrister was just interested if he practised.

I've had to look long and hard for mine as said in my last post it's a very complicated case so far 4 years in the making

A firm may have a good rep or a bad rep, the bottom line is how good is the person dealing with your matter.... Some are better than others, regardless of the firm they are at.

Not at all. Have I ever intimated I'm anything other than a lay person? To save you the bother, the answer is 'no'. And IANAL.

You need to amend your posting style then. That's a newbie thinking you are a solicitor and at least two of us calling you out on your posting style. Seriously, if you have a comment to make then make it, but make it in a genuine IANAL style, or even add that to your posts.

As you appear to speak with some certainty over issues of liability and are caught out as being mistaken on an almost daily basis, perhaps you ought to do the same, Loon?

There's a difference. You post in the style of a solicitor, without the qualifications, or career to be one. I post as a blunt insurance bod, with both the qualifications and career to do so.

I'm not getting into the other piece, as it'll be too easy for you to send us off on a tangent again.

Once again you take a thread on a tangent of your own to facilitate a personal dig, at someone who doesn't accept your mistaken absolute statements of fact at face value.

If anyone on this forum is responsible for furthering bar room myths with regards to issues of liability it is you.

And finally, people should not be taking legal advice they intend to rely on from an internet forum such as this.
