solicitors' charges

This section will focus on solicitors' charges but will only consider them in outline.

The majority of these items related to solicitors' charges, other professional advisers' charges or receivers' remuneration.

These recommendations are some of the conclusions of a wide-ranging review of the ways in which dissatisfaction about solicitors' charges is handled.

The society will consider carrying out a survey of solicitors' charges for conveyancing to compare them with those of competitors here and with professions in other countries.

All complaints about solicitors' charges will in future be conciliated if possible, under proposals to be considered by The Law Society Council at its meeting on 15 July.
