Unless you are determined to turn a query into a formal complaint or Professional Negligence Claim.
It is not the end of the world. Although it may start to seem that way if you don't follow Rule No. 3.
This will help to get it into perspective and you can start getting help to see if there really is a problem. There may be answers that you have not seen. If there is, then together you can work out what you might do about it.
Talk to LawCover if it even potentially involves a professional negligence claim. They are very experienced and will talk to you confidentially. Call 02 9264 8855 and as to speak to one of the Claims Solicitors. Simply notifying a potential claim does not lead to a claims loading for a law practice, nor will it impact on a law practice's no-claim bonus.
Information about notifying claims is at LawCover Claims.
If you are looking for an independent senior solicitor who is sympathetic to the problems of being a practitioner and who has already volunteered to help, then consider the Senior Solicitors' Scheme of the Law Society of NSW.
For information on the assistance that the Law Society can provide if you are struggling with practice (or with life), see Foolkit's Your Wellbeing page.
A common question asked of criminal lawyers is "How do you defend somebody who you think is guilty?". For an interesting discussion on this issue, see the Radio National's the Law Report's 'The Ethics of Criminal Lawyers' interview:
