Law Society Digs Into Miners' Solicitors
Law Society Wins First Miners' Compensation Case Heard by Tribunal Law Society Press Release2 June 2006
The Law Society has won its first application to be considered by
the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal relating to the miners’
compensation controversy. Barnsley-based firm Raleys have been
ordered to pay compensation to two former clients, as directed by
the Law Society. The compensation, in each case of £300, had been
directed because Raleys had failed to explain funding arrangements
to their clients.
