Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Compensation Bill (HL).
Compensation Bill [Lords]
I concur with my hon. Friend’s comments that the Law Society is getting better, but is not one of the problems with it that many firms of solicitors only pay back money to people who complain, and there are possibly tens of thousands of people who do not know that they have been hoodwinked—robbed, in my opinion—by a firm of solicitors? They will never get that money back unless someone forces those cowboys to pay it back.
