Kingsly Solicitors Ltd Shut Down By Solicitors Regulator Over Dishonesty

By Ashley Young-

National firm Kingly Solicitors Limited has been shut down by the regulator.The firm was shut down for acting against the interest of its clients, and  not complying with one or more of the terms of its licence in a manner that amounted to dishonesty.

The SRA cited dishonesty also intervened in the practices of Kingly’s three directors, Champika Ratnayake, Simon Hutcheson and Simon Crosby Peacock

A spokesperson for the SRA told The Eye Of Media.Com : ”there is enough reason to suspect dishonesty’ by Nurul Miah as a manager of the firm in connection with the firm’s business; or any trust of which the firm is or was a trustee.

when we suspect client interest is at risk due to the conduct of a law firm, we present our evidence to the Independent panel Adjudication and see their response. If they agree the evidence suggests it should be closed down, we close it down. The investigation is ongoing at the moment”.

Kingly Solicitors,  known as RH Legal until last year, now has offices in Bristol, London, York, Leighton Buzzard, Watford and Harrogate, among other locations. Kingsley Smith Solicitors are specialist planning lawyers, with extensive experience of the complex legal landscape of planning’
