QualitySolicitors sets sights on UK domination with private equity injection

Am I being too cynical in wondering if some of the pro-QS posts are from QS firms ...? I fully accept that many legal processes can be commoditised, but it won't be QS who pick up this work, it will be the big institutions like the banks and insurers who will carry out the work at a loss in order to capture a docile and receptive market for their crappy products. I, and I supect many other small firms, offer a service to my clients that is personal. My clients are generally affluent, and are more than happy tp pay a high rate for the work. They prefer quality to cheapness. They won't consider going to some franchise operation provided I carry on giving them the service they want. And the chances of any top 100 firm wanting to be associated with a chavvy High Street image must be miniscule - or if they do they must be desperate.
