What would be difference if we removed had here?

"Friend Farlow, who was a lawyer of sorts, and ought to have been able to give me some solid advice, was too much occupied with Jean's cancer to do anything more than what he had promised"

What would be difference if we removed had here? Would sentence convey the same meaning? If not, then can you explain why?
