She has offices in a rural setting which means a calm environment, easy access and plenty of free parking. Strongly recommended.
I instructed Tara McInnes from Burnside partnership. On the surface, she seemed effective and I had full confidence in her abilities.
I explained that my parents and I had been emotional and financially abused by my sister (a fellow executor).
From the outset, I requested financial transparency and to use junior solicitors for mundane, menial tasks to economise.
I put a good sum of money on account and was lead to believe that I was still using this money. I was shocked, when I was billed over £6,000, 2 months later .
Firstly. The company breached their own terms and conditions by not billing me every month, according to their t's & c's. They landed me with a huge bill with no real meaningful breakdown. They never used different pay graded staff as requested. Tara undertook and billed me for work which i instructed her NOT to do.
I complained to the Legal ombudsman and solicitors regulation authority, who were equally spineless and useless. It seems the legal fraternity have a symbiotic relationship.
I feel totally let down by the legal system and have lost hope in true justice.
