Our complaints policy
We are committed to high quality legal advice and client care. If there is anything that is troubling you, could you please contact the person dealing with the matter straight away so that any problems or concerns can be dealt with.
Our complaints procedure
If you are unhappy about any aspect of the service you have received, or about the bill, please contact Mr. William Ransford who is our designated Complaints Handler and he can be contacted on 01686 412166 or by e-mail on william@mjjsolicitors.co.uk or by post to our office. He will deal with the matter expeditiously with a view to resolving it to your satisfaction. We have a Complaints Handling Policy in place which details how we handle complaints which is available at our office and upon request.
If, however, you remain unsatisfied with our handling of your complaint, you can ask the Legal Ombudsman at PO Box 6806, Wolverhampton WV1 9WJ (Telephone 0300 555 0333 or e-mail enquiries@legalombudsman.org.uk) to consider the complaint. Normally you will need to bring a complaint to the Legal Ombudsman within six months of receiving a final written response from us about your complaint or no later than six years from when the problem occurred or three years from when you should reasonably have become aware of the problem. For the Ombudsman to deal with your complaint the problem must ordinarily have occurred after the 5th October 2010.
If the problem occurred on or before the 5th October 2010 or you should reasonably have known there was cause for complaint, on or before that date, then the Ombudsman will not usually be able to deal with your complaint.
If you are unsure about these time limits and how they apply to your matter, please contact the Legal Ombudsman’s office, using the contact details shown above, to clarify the position.
Subject to the above Scheme Rules, and the Legal Ombudsman’s discretion to extend the time limits, you will need to bring your complaint to the Legal Ombudsman:
