About the information shown
Firm earnings
This table shows what we paid to solicitors' firms between 1 April 2003 and 31 March 2004. It includes BACS payments transferred to the firms' bank accounts and cheques dated between those dates. In some cases, money may have been paid to a firm, but returned to us, and any such amounts put through our accounts system between those dates have been deducted. If a firm has repaid us money in a year later than the original payment, they may be shown as having been paid a negative figure.
Advocates
This table shows what we paid to the Faculty of Advocates for each advocate between 1 April 2003 and 31 March 2004. It includes BACS payments transferred to the Faculty's bank accounts and cheques dated between those dates. In some cases, money may have been paid to the Faculty, but returned to us, and any such amounts put through our accounts system between those dates have been deducted. If an advocate has repaid us money in a year later than the original payment, they may be shown as having been paid a negative figure.
Solicitor advocates
This table shows what we paid to firms for each solicitor advocate between 1 April 2003 and 31 March 2004.
