Making a compliant
We want to give you 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.

Handling and Resolving a Complaint
We will provide you with a written outcome following an investigation into your complaint. If you are not happy with our outcome or we have not provided you with an outcome within 8 weeks you can contact the Legal Ombudsman.
If we cannot resolve your complaint you can speak directly to The Legal Ombudsman who can help. 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 that has occurred, you must make your complaint to them: –
- Within six months of receiving a final response to your complaint
- No more than one year from the date of act/omission; or
- No more than one year from when you should reasonably have known there was cause for complaint.
