Respondent solicitor, a property practitioner at George Emanuel Solicitors, faced nine allegations across Rule 5 and Rule 7 statements, all found proved in her absence. She failed to honour multiple undertakings (to GC & Co, R Solicitors, O Legal and lender client Bank of Scotland/Birmingham Midshires), failed to register clients' titles and pay SDLT, billed clients for work not completed, failed to account for client monies, and failed to respond to the SRA. The Tribunal found a lack of integrity (Rule 1.02) but expressly noted no allegations of dishonesty were made. Clients' monies disappeared with no explanation and claims on the compensation fund reached £12,192.25. The Tribunal struck her off the Roll and awarded costs of £12,509.05 (not to be enforced without leave).
