I would like to know what the law says in the following scenario 'a solicitor firm is engaged to do some work and they completed it but not to satisfaction and the client raises a complaint and then they come up with a letter refuting the complaint and also say we have not invoiced you for some work done in May and send a bill for it,but the point there is that when they completed the whole work in July they never mentioned about any unpaid bills'

Do you think they have a leg to stand on?

Yes and paid in July itself,but I was not happy with their services and complained to them and then I got this bill just last week saying that they can forego the bill I will sign a form saying I'm satisfied with their services smile
