I know it's on a tiny scale in comparison, but my experience of lawyers suggested timeframes has consistently screwed me over in life. It's as if there's an industry secret, much akin to the magic circle, where they create a client dependency upon them where you're so deep into the process it's too difficult to find somebody else to do the work. Years ago i had to move out of my own house for six months due to the tardiness and deceit of a solicitor. Currently i have two different lawyers, from different firms, who've promised certain timeframes, and both come up woefully short. One working on a commercial loan agreement the other on a possession order. It's not difficult to envisage that the legals are the big hold up for our asset sale.
