I still haven't stopped laughing, but at least I can now control myself sufficiently to type. I have to mirror James Medhurst's comment - that I too have had cases where the client and their employee were psychically aware of the 'lament procedure' before it had even been published. My salutations to Naomi and Michael for a masterful (?mistressful?) analysis .. in advance .. of the next 'simplification' of statutory procedures.

As the Institute of Legal Executives pointed out during the consultation process in the Dog & Duck exactly a year ago today, ILEX Lawyers are just as competent to lament as Solicitors and Barristers and there can be no justification for the continued endorsement of outdated restrictive practices. ILEX Lawyers wishing to join the protest should register their interest with the Federation of Overlooked Lawyers (FOOL) no later than noon this time next year. [Nice work Naomi and Michael; the sad thing being it is almost believable] Eminently sensible new rules as you rightly say save for the appalling discrimination as to representative laments.
