I recently complained to the Law Society that a solicitor had failed to follow a pre-action protocol and they replied that only a court can decide whether this is the case. As the claim against me has now been withdrawn, the matter will not reach court and so the solicitor’s failure to follow the protocol will not be examined. Is there any way in which I can bring the solicitor’s behaviour to the attention of the courts?

In response to Charlotte: the purpose of the question is to discover if there is a mechanism by which the court can be asked to rule on the matter. This concerns pre-action protocols (i.e. rules as to how a claim should be prosecuted before it reaches court). Charlotte’s answer appears to relate to mistakes made in court.
