Clause 119

If, after an agreement in pursuance of the provisions of section 115 of this Act has been made, the client changes his solicitor before the conclusion of the business to which such agreement relates, which he may do notwithstanding such agreement, the solicitor, party to such agreement, shall be deemed to have become incapable to act under the same within the meaning of this section.

Upon any order being made for taxation of the amount due to such solicitor in respect of business done under such agreement, the court shall direct the Registrar to have regard to the circumstances under which such change of solicitor has taken place.

Upon such taxation the solicitor shall not be deemed to be entitled to the full amount of the remuneration agreed to be paid to him unless it appears that there has been no default, negligence, improper delay or other conduct on his part affording reasonable ground to the client for such change of solicitor.
