    Default Solicitor costs

    How much would it cost to hire a solicitor for one appearance in magistrates ?

    Need to sack my legal aid solicitor and get one with a set of balls who will represent me.

    Represent yourself mate, just study the laws regarding your case, the judge will give you some leeway as your doing it yourself.

    Since the gov fucked the legal aid system more people are representing themselves in courts, 99% without the necessary level of knowledge required to win the case. We ain't meant to get off lads because the whole system is designed to generate cash for the fucking rich. btw. There's a reason the rich don't go to jail.. its because they've the best legal representation money can buy.

    if you are going to act for yourself dont just read the legislation you have to look at the relevant case law too, the decisions of the higher courts can make a huge difference and are binding on the lower courts. eg Crown trumps magistrates, Court of appeal trumps Crown, House of lords Trumps The Court of appeal and the European court beats them all. there is one other court in the UK that has overall supremacy but it has rarely ever been constituted as a court, that is The House of Commons.
