Outcome details

This outcome was reached by SRA decision.

Reasons/basis

On 5th December 2011, the Committee resolved to intervene into the practices of Charles Obinna Odiachi Spiropoulos (Roll No: 682) and Andrew Obinna Kalu Onyearu (Roll No: 162010) who practised as Andrews Solicitors (264637) at 90-92 Rye Lane, London, SE15 4RZ.

The grounds for intervention were that:

  • 1. Mr Onyearu and Mr Spiropoulos were both adjudged bankrupt on 3rd March and 15th April 2011 respectively, and
  • 2. It was necessary to exercise the powers of intervention in relation to Mr Onyearu and Mr Spiropoulos to protect the interests of clients (or former or potential clients) of Mr Onyearu and Mr Spiropoulos and/or Andrews Solicitors, or the interests of the beneficiaries of any trust which they are or were trustees.

Mr Onyearu and Mr Spiropoulos do not hold current practising certificates.
