A recently-qualified solicitor has been struck off after she created a fake decree absolute and led a client to believe his divorce was complete.
The Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal heard that Ebru Atas, who qualified in 2017, had the client pay £1,630 fees directly into her personal bank account and told him these were being paid to the firm.
She created a false decree absolute in the client’s name and certified a copy of this document. It was later confirmed by the Bury St Edmunds divorce unit there was ‘no trace’ of documents relating to this client. Even when the matter was uncovered, Atas had phoned the client and told him he should trust her as his legal representative, insisting the decree absolute was a genuine document.
