We aim to offer all our clients an efficient and effective service and we are confident that we do so.  In the event, however, that there should be any aspect of our service with which you are unhappy including bills that you receive from us, you should inform us immediately so that we can do our best to resolve the problem for you.

We have a procedure in place which details how we handle complaints which can be viewed here.  Please contact Claire, Complaints Partner, either by telephoning her, writing to her, or contacting her by email on cmk@blytheliggins.co.uk.  We have 25 working days to consider your complaint.  If we are unable to help you, then you can have the complaint independently looked at by the Legal Ombudsman.

The Legal Ombudsman can investigate complaints up to six years from the date of the problem occurring, or within three years of when you discovered the problem.  If you wish to refer your complaint to the Legal Ombudsman, this must be done within six months of our final response to your complaint.
