always get the very best my Mum said (preferably Jewish as well)and so I do.
Long mundane matter involving set up of a new club. My very smart lawyer always hands over the detailed grunt work to a newbie..costs far less in fees.
New youngish solicitor from the UK cut his teeth at the UK CPS. Pondered that the Savile matter was totally bizarre and although no idea of the truth reckons many claimants must be fake and says compo costs will be next big drama for government as insurance firms jack up and fight claims.
Chatter progressed to talk of a (totally unconnected and entirely coincidental matter) case he worked on for CPS as clerk...a former policeman once charged with blackmail !.
Guilty as charged he said and a very slippery character...not too bright but had sympathetic puppyish eyes in the dock (often comes down to stuff like that)and a superb barrister who raised credible doubt and thus Crown lost case.
no names..wonder who it was ?
