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.

​

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. If you would like to make a formal complaint, please contact Neil Evans. We have a procedure in place which details how we handle complaints which is available on request.

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 have, then you must take your complaint to the Legal Ombudsman:

​

• Within six months of receiving a final response to your complaint

and

• No more than six years from the date of act/omission; or

• No more than three years from when you should reasonably have known there was cause for complaint.

• ​

If you would like more information about the Legal Ombudsman, please contact them.
