#3815, I think yours was a sensible question, and you're not wrong for asking for info about that. However, I think your cocky attitude may have put some people off.

This is not an invitation to explain why your attitude was not cocky. This is a suggestion to stop bickering and to ask somewhere else. I'm sorry you didn't get what you want.

Anyway, to the posters here that were part of the 1,000 lawyers that argued against the fixed fee arrangements, thank you all very much. It's because of you all that a short-sighted, impractical move was rejected. I hope it is never revisited in future.
