Having read the *police* (don't know what this means anymore) precognition for my brothers crash in Jan '02 which was sent to his solicitor and which reads along the lines of "he was a biker and it must have been his fault even though I am not supposed to be biased". Where the other party was uninsured and the police have taken her side, she was crying and upset because she knew she wasn't insured, and my brother was in a bad way and a biker. It is looking like a small claims court case. Anyone know how long these can take? Also what else can be done to **** over the other party in every way possible? My bro' has been out of pocket for nearly two years now and is loosing the will to live WRT the case. All advice welcome. TIA -- Martin: "For a minute there, you bored me to death."

The Older Gentleman was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever: I thought that was almost a general rule when you need a solicitor? I mean, there's *no* point in getting one who's nice and fluffy...
And pay him a monthly retainer and get him to claim his fees on top of the other stuff. Makes him work really hard, because then he gets loadsamoney!!!!! Much more than no win no fee types. Dave
