Today, 5.42 pm Keep in with the Mrs. You might be getting a mortgage for a divorcee soon ðŸ¤£ 
Today, 5.36 pm Great outcome there Anonymous, and can't blame you heading for a quiet pint! Having read all the comments I have to say that I would have taken The Deans approach here...life is too short for pissing about with CCJ's etc etc for £199. I take my broker fee at the DIP 'Accept' ...
Today, 5.03 pm They don't want to pay for service, no service. It would be entertaining with FOS, but nothing would come from it. The biggest worry would be a negative review.
Today, 4.59 pm If you cancel the offer you run the risk that the client will complain.Should the complaint go all the way to FOS never know what they could rule.I would send the client a notification that if the fee wasnt paid in full within the next 14 days you would issue proceedings against them and they would ...

Today, 4.40 pm Surely - that doesn't matter?   If the client has done nothing wrong and the Solicitor has made a big mistake - they should just complain?
Today, 4.37 pm If he calls your bluff on this, your doing more work and agreeing to not taking the fee.  Sod that, I would rather just send a letter before action.  I have done 4 LBAs, 3 of them have paid before it went to court. The other I so far have £100 of my £999 and due another &poun...
Today, 4.33 pm Update on the story ... Thanks to everyone for their comments - its been great I've just received the fee. I hadn't actually done anything as I was still pondering what to do - however, I had a very apologetic email from the wife and said I fully deserved the fee as I had acted professiona...
