Going back a few years, it was relatively easy to obtain Independent Legal Advice where it was required. However, several recent cases have been brought where solicitors providing Independent Legal Advice have been found to have done so inadequately, and have ended up bearing liability for the debts that were the subject of the Independent Legal Advice.
As a result, these days, many solicitors will decline requests to provide Independent Legal Advice, on the basis that it is “high risk and low reward”. Some solicitors’ Professional Indemnity Insurance policies prevent them from giving Independent Legal Advice.
