I'm trying, really I am.  I even keep my hands on top of the bedclothes. 
But however hard I try I still get these, you know, feelings.  And I don't 
know what to do.

Please advise soonest.

Hi,
My partner became ill and she applied for Disability Living Allowance. 
This was rejected on the grounds she did not fit the criteria.  We
appealled and were told we were going to go to a tribunal for a 1 to 1
assessment.  We looked online and were advised on a number of sites to
get legal representation, which we diligently did.  We found what seemed
like a competent, knowledgeable solicitor that specialises in these sort
of cases.

He gave us two options.  Pay as you go or No win no fee.  We opted for
no-win no fee and signed the contract.  We also paid £200 for some
letters/communications he had to make on our behalf.  I was confused by
this, but didn't question it.

The date of the tribunal came and he never arrived.  The tribunal judge
got a bit annoyed and we overheard her mentioning to him by phone that
she did not believe his excuse about getting the date wrong. We were
given the option to press ahead with the tribunal or re schedule so he
could make it.  I should clarify my partner and the solicitor had a
conversation two weeks prior where he reminded us of the date.

My partner decided to press on ahead, she was already 'fully charged'
over waiting months for this date, so she acknowledged the judges
caution about not being able to re-sit it if we went ahead, and we
continued anyway.

Two weeks later, we recieved notice that we won our case, but we are
slightly miffed obviously that we have to pay someone half that did not
even turn up.

Did he breach the contract by not coming?  The contract we signed was
about our responsibilities and his rights, but does not mention his.

Basically we want to dump him, we were awarded DLA without his help and
do not see why we should pay him 50% for not turning up.

In answer to my own post (to the benefit of anyone else that this may
appear useful to), you do not need pay a penny.  He was in breach of
contract and in fact if we push it, he may owe us money (out the £200 we
paid him already).  My wife and I are not vindictive, we will phone him
and tell him 'its over' and he can keep the £200.

Ask for it all back, he might offer half.
