The Respondent, admitted in 1992 and a director of AJ Legal Limited working as a Wills and Probate consultant/locum, was convicted of serious criminal offences resulting in a custodial sentence of over 4 years. The Tribunal found, by way of an Agreed Outcome considered on the papers, that the conviction and underlying conduct breached Principles 2 and 5. Relying on SRA v Farrimond, the Tribunal held that a solicitor sentenced to a substantial term of imprisonment should not remain on the Roll, and struck him off as the only appropriate, proportionate sanction. He was ordered to pay agreed costs of £1,692. The Tribunal directed restricted publication to avoid exceptional harm. No express finding of dishonesty was made.

Duties found breached:

• Integrity
• Uphold public trust in the profession
