Multiple issues regarding COI, promotional content, notability. The article was clearly written by someone working for the organisation in question (user "Delphys50", who's only ever edited topics related to this particular affiliate scheme, claims to be the organisation's chief executive - [] - and see the edit history, where it spent months in development going through various drafts before going public), it's written like an advertisement with numerous unverifiable claims, and there's no indication why this organisation in itself is notable rather than those of the member firms (it seems to be a franchise-type thing, rather than having "branches" as claimed in the article). Not sure whether an encyclopedic stub could be salvaged from what's there now; as it stands, it's a press release for a non-notable organisation. Fosse8 (talk) 13:03, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete, entirely unambiguous advertising with no salvageable text: It is a selective membership organisation with the aim of developing a recognisable legal brand name to allow law firms to compete with non-legal brands due to be permitted to provide legal services due to the Legal Services Act 2007 reforms. It has a policy of locating its branches in convenient and visible locations and in November 2010 launched the UK's first retail legal store....  covers all areas of law. It offers a range of "customer service" orientated innovations including no hidden costs, a free first consultation and a promise of a same-day response to all client enquiries....  branches are famously frequently launched by well-known celebrities such as X-factor stars Stacey Solomon and Jamie Archer, soap star Roxanne Pallett and Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden....  A world where law firms are advertised by soap opera stars is amusing to contemplate. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 16:05, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy G11 and tagged as such. Blatant advertising. - The Bushranger Return fire Flank speed 19:29, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy G11 nothing but solicitation, non-notable. Only reason not to speedy is so that we can G4 delete if it comes back. —  T RANSPORTER M AN  ( TALK ) 21:09, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
