Law Society hits back after High Court chief’s ‘attack’
Last night, the president of the Law Society, James MacGuill said the Master of the High Court Edmund Honohan had made an “extraordinary attack” on solicitors. Mr MacGuill said the comments of Mr Honohan, at a speech to UCC law students on Thursday night, ignored the persistent efforts being made by the society.
He said in light of the controversies involving solicitors who had authorised mortgages on false pretenses, the Law Society would not be found wanting.
