Complaints about solicitors in England and Wales

Solicitors are regulated professionals and are required to set out their formal complaints handling procedure in their terms and conditions. You will have been provided with a copy of the solicitor’s complaints procedure when you initially instructed your solicitor.

If you require another copy of your solicitor's formal complaints policy your solicitor will be able to provide this upon request.

If you wish to make a complaint about your solicitor you should contact your solicitor directly.

If Completely Moved receives a complaint about a solicitor we will ensure that the complaint is forwarded to that solicitor within one working day. In the event that the solicitor is not contactable, we will ensure that the complaint is passed to the respective solicitor's Head of Department.

Your solicitor will deal with your complaint in accordance with their formal complaints procedure. If you are not happy with your solicitor's response then your complaint can be referred to the Legal Ombudsman:
