A solicitor in this area drafts pleadings and notices, reviews and levies disclosure requests, negotiates settlements, and represents clients in court or at the Financial Ombudsman Service after initial complaints. It often involves regulatory considerations, mis-selling allegations, and breaches of financial regulation.
