These are the conclusions of Citadel Law, a consultancy which has worked with over 200 law firms in the UK. Lesley Graves, Citadel’s managing director, said: ‘“I fear that some PI law firms are creating the sector's next big storm – a market of it’s own making. A failure to properly serve clients resulting in poorly negotiated liability settlements and undervalued compensation awards is opening up a whole new market for ‘cannibal’ lawyers who have seen the dumbing down in the profession and are out to capitalise through professional negligence claims.’ Source: Citadel
