Had solicitors try this with me and I just reminded them of their terms and they changed their minds about that invoice. Always check the terms as just because they are solicitors does not mean they are not dishonest.
Good advice, except that if the complaint to the senior partner gets nowhere she should report them to the Legal Ombudsman, not the SRA. The Legal Ombudsman has the power to order them to pay her compensation, which the SRA doesn't.
Great advice!!
