Markshaw, yes, there are some things that do not look as I expected. I thought we were dealing with Setfords, a firm with a team of 500 lawyers. Admittedly it looks as if it is just an umbrella for work to be put out to individual lawyers rather than a large firm. However, we now seem to be employing Carlton Elleker Chase, a company with 2 directors, Joel Barry and Michael Cotter. The company changed name from Barry Legal to the current name last month, and did have a winding up order last year which was cancelled. The company's registered office is a residential house in Richmond, Surrey, and the address on the emails (misspelt) is in a building in Lodon EC4 where there are more than 200 companies using this address.
So I have some reservations about us all jointly handing them 150,000 GBP, as this legal practice seems to have been set up last month, probably just for this claim. I am sure that the CAG and Michael Cotter can explain all this to our satisfaction?
