[QUOTE="Alison C, post: 45227, member: 3943"] Um, possibly not more 'vigilante', but rather, more vigilant! Vigilantes are people who take the law into their own hands on a rather drastic basis - think spaghetti westerns - not a good look for a solicitor, for sure... [I]"noun[/I] [LIST=1] [*]a member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority, typically because the legal agencies are thought to be inadequate." [/LIST] I would also recommend the free online tool 'Grammarly', which doesn't work in Word (nor does it pick up word substitutions such as that you are discussing), but it does pick up online issues. I'm getting a red line under my use of 'vigilante' in my first paragraph here. It's super useful, and builds good habits, though it does use American spellings so you have to ignore some of them. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
