Opinion: Guilty firms should dig deep and repay miners

John Mann is correct It is Anonymous who is being ingenuous. The excellent Legal Complaints Service as part of its Rother Valley Pilot Scheme raised a very significant number of complaints from miners who had been badly let down by those who were supposed to assist them including it is entirely true to say their 'unions' as well as their lawyers. The time for solicitors to put their heads in the sand under the pretence that they can do no wrong is long gone. It is because of this uncommercial attitude and the fact that the Law Society was so poor in complaints handling that the quasi independent LCS (and the soon to be established entirely independent Office for Legal Complaints) became necessary.
