hi dave99,
We didnt instruct him to do anything. We paid £18K into his client account which we were lead to believe would stay there until we were happy with the contracts. We have not signed anything and no power of attorney given.
Therefore we thought it would just be a case of the lawyer refunding the monies from his client account.
