Complaints
We are confident that we will provide you with a high quality service but should you have any queries or concerns regarding our service or invoice, please contact the partner identified in your engagement letter immediately. If you would prefer to speak to a partner who is not involved in the matter, you may contact Kara Irwin. Our complaints procedure is provided upon request.
We have eight weeks to consider and resolve your complaint. If we have not resolved your complaint within this time, you may be eligible to bring the complaint to the Legal Ombudsman via enquiries@legalombudsman.org.uk, their website at www.legalombudsman.org.uk, or PO Box 6806, Wolverhampton, WV1 9WJ. You must take your complaint to the Legal Ombudsman within six months of receiving a final response to your complaint from us. From 1 April 2023, the Legal Ombudsman also expects complaints to be made to them within 1 year of the date of the act or omission about which you are concerned or within 1 year of you realising there was a concern.
You may also contact the Solicitors Regulation Authority if you are concerned about our conduct.
You have the right to complain about your bill in accordance with our complaints procedure. You have to right to challenge the bill by applying to court for an assessment under Part III of the Solicitors’ Act 1974. If you apply for an assessment, the Legal Ombudsman may not deal with your complaint.
If all or part of our bill remains unpaid, we may be entitled to charge interest.
Fees
We tailor our method of calculating fees to best meet our clients’ needs. Fees are usually calculated by either hourly rates charged in units of 6 minutes to the nearest unit; or on a fixed fee basis; or by combination of hourly rates and fixed fees.
Fees are based on the amount of time taken to complete the work required, the expertise required to complete the work, and any complexity or unique aspect of your matter. Unless we have agreed a fixed fee in advance of undertaking the work the hourly basis of charging applies. If any fixed fee work runs outside the scope of the work referred to in the particular fixed fee arrangement, we will notify you and discuss. An estimate of costs is not a fixed fee, and the hourly basis does apply when an estimate has been given.
