told us that even from what she had heard in court that I should really think about changing
solicitors. It went back into court and the judge heard the case and my bail was varied on the
01/01/2014
my mum again texted you due to an issue where I got arrested, she had tried to call the office
but there was no answer of a voice mail message to give a number to call. No one got back to
my mum so when she got to court, she had to ask a solicitor that was on duty that day to help
me. He said he was not meant to as I had legal aid for the case already, but he would go and
speak to me, he did in fact represent me in court that day. On the
03/01/2014
I asked my mum sent you an email to ask if my case was too much for you as I knew you had
a lot of work on. You told me you were still on annual leave and I return to work on Monday.
On the
31/01/2014
I was due to have a meeting in the office which you had to cancel as you were dealing with
other cases. This was re booked for
04/01/2014
at 2pm. I have called you many times and it has just gone to voice mail and you have not
called me back. I have also called the office about things I feel are wrong and told someone
would call me back which has not happened. I can prove this with statements from the
phones that were used. There are emails that have been sent to you and no reply to them
emails and what I have asked have been given. There was a break down before in this case as
you are aware and I dropped the complaint. Josey, I have used you as a solicitor for many
years and don’t just look at you as a solicitor you are a friend of the families. All I want is for
my case to be dealt with in a correct manner, which will lead me to have a speedy and fair
trial, and I don’t want to feel like I am being punished for a crime that I have not been
convicted of. And I feel with the statement from Nikki Diamond that would show somewhat
to Mr Patel ways in how he has dealt with his insurance case in this matter that clearly is not
correct all ready. Could you please email back at the points that have been included in this
email, and if you feel I am wrong on any points or the way in which I am feeling.

to transfer legal representation
Simon
Further to your telephone conversation with me today during which you have accused me of
not representing you correctly and not defending your case properly you leave me with little
choice but to list the case at Woolwich Crown Court in order that your legal representation
order can be revoked. I am cancelling your 2pm conference with me for Tuesday
04th February 2014.
I am not prepared to be subjected to threats about you blackening my name over Facebook. I
work very hard for all my clients and my track record as a Criminal Defence Solicitors attests
to that.
I have represented you since you were a juvenile to the best of my abilities, and I have never
not defended a client properly or tried my best for my client. You stated that during the
telephone conversation that the Judge asked you to change your solicitors at
448,
the last bail hearing on Christmas Eve. As you are aware, I was on annual leave from
23rd December 2013.
