Reasons/basis
This notification relates to a Decision to prosecute before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal. This is an independent Tribunal which will reach its own decision after considering all the evidence, including any evidence put forward by the Solicitor. The Tribunal has certified that there is a case to answer in respect of allegations which are or include that Mr Durkin: -
- Created a Client Care Letter with appended Terms of Business and backdated the Client Care Letter to appear as though it was a document that had been created on a previous date.
- In the alternative, in creating a backdated Client Care Letter with appended Terms of Business, the Mr Durkin was reckless as to the risk of causing others to believe that the Client Care Letter was a document that had been created and/or sent previously.
The allegations are subject to a Hearing before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal and are as yet unproven.
