Independent conclusion
11. Why I would not recommend Kesar & Co
No recommendation.
The firm's historical High Court findings and disciplinary record are serious matters of public record.
The later documented case history raises further concerns about missed deadlines, failure to progress discrimination instructions and inadequate supervision.
Mariah Evans-Marshall did not substantively address the 13 October formal complaint, and the further complaint and promised 29 October response remained unresolved.
Outstanding client-file and insurer-information requests add to those concerns.
In my opinion, these matters demonstrate unacceptable case management and warrant independent professional negligence investigation.
I would not recommend Kesar & Co for urgent or time-sensitive litigation.
