Met demands cut-price rates as scandal hots up

Comment

Pulled out of this one already. Load of utter nonsense. If they expect to pay legal aid rates (or less) then they will only get small firms tendering without any police experience or large firms hoping to ride out the storm. To all the large firms still in, a few words of advice, if you tender for £110 per hour for partner level advice in 2011, there is no chance of them accepting a bid of £200 per hour plus in 4 years time. If you value your advice at that level now, why will they pay an increase at re-tender? It's a race to the bottom and we're all complicit if we rate ourselves so poorly to compete.
