LEGAL Aid solicitors across south Wales are threatening to refuse to work for two days next month in protest at proposed reforms to the Legal Aid system.
They say they, and the Law Society of England and Wales, have lobbied the Government to drop their plans, arguing they will lead to the collapse of the system and leave thousands of people without representation.
But solicitors say they have been ignored and now insist they will boycott Legal Aid cases on March 15 and 16.
