She accommodates solicitors either way (5)
I believe the answer is:
madam
'either way' is the definition.
'she accommodates solicitors' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'she' could be 'mada' and 'mada' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'm' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for madam that I've seen before include "Formal address to a woman - precocious little girl" , "Polite form of address for a woman" , "Palindrome used in speaking politely to a woman" , "Woman with status - girl with bad manners" , "Woman running a brothel" .)
