McCarthy Mensah, the client
A Tema-based businessman is on the heels of Ellis Kwame Quashigah, a lawyer, to compensate him and take care of his current condition as result of the lawyer’s exhibition of bad faith.
McCarthy Mensah, Proprietor of DS Group Engineering and Consultancy Services, told The Chronicle that on May 24, last year, he paid GH¢5,000 to Ellis Kwame Quashigah of Quashigah and Co (Dzidedi Chambers), Accra, with receipt number 0001273 as filing fee for a debt recovery case between him, the businessman, and STE Kassoum Zombre Sarl-V of the Republic of Togo.
Having paid the money to the lawyer, Mr Mensah said the former later produced a photocopy of a writ of summons and statement of claim respectively.
