Complaints

We endeavour to provide you with the best possible service. However, if at any point you become unhappy or concerned about the service we have provided then you should inform us immediately, so that we can do our best to resolve the problem. In the first instance it may be helpful to contact the person who is working on your case to discuss your concerns and we will do our best to resolve any issues at this stage. If you would like to make a formal complaint, then you can read our full complaints procedure here.

What to do if we cannot resolve your complaint

The Legal Ombudsman can help you if we are unable to resolve your complaint ourselves. They will look at your complaint independently and it will not affect how we handle your case.

Before accepting a complaint for investigation, the Legal Ombudsman will check that you have tried to resolve your complaint with us first. If you wish to complain to the Legal Ombudsman, generally you should do so within six months of the date of our final response to your complaint; and no later than one year from act/omission, or no later than one year from when the complainant should reasonably have known there was cause for complaint.

For more information about the Legal Ombudsman please visit www.legalombudsman.org.uk or T: 0300 555 0333 between 9am to 5pm or E: enquiries@legalombudsman.org.uk or write to Legal Ombudsman PO Box 6167, Slough SL1 0EH.

The Solicitors Regulation Authority can help if you are concerned about our behaviour. This could be for things like dishonesty, taking or losing your money or treating you unfairly because of your age, a disability or other characteristic.
