Solicitors: Why Don’t They Respond To My Emails?!
•
If you've been around me long enough, you know there's one group I dread almost as much as builders - solicitors.
Slow as snails, stuck in the past, and almost ghostlike with responses.
But here's the twist - my solicitor, Stuart Forsdike, doesn't fit the mould.
Stu, the backbone behind PCS Legal, has revolutionised the scene. Starting out as a small & humble family-run firm, PCS is now a national heavyweight with over 170 staff.
I sat down with Stu and he revealed it all - the secrets of conveyancing, the reasons why solicitors are notoriously slow, the cash flow behind the curtain, and much, much more.
So grab your gavel, tune in, and find out why Stu is the exception to my solicitor scorn.

3 Lessons from my 2025 #TejTalks
