The governing body for solicitors in Scotland has set clear standards, which were ignored in my case review by the SLCC. The legal representatives did not engage the necessary experts to validate my claims of negligence. A different solicitor confirmed my case had merit, contradicting the SLCC's findings. It appears the SLCC is more focused on protecting incompetent solicitors than ensuring accountability. I would rate them a zero if possible, which reflects the dissatisfaction many feel.
