Full details on the applicable regulatory requirements and other information for consumers of legal services can be found on the website of the SRA at: https://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/

Tozers is also subject to the Legal Ombudsman, an independent body which handles complaints against solicitors.

For The Legal Ombudsman to be able to investigate your complaint (they will look at your complaint independently and it will not affect how we handle your case) you will normally need to bring your dissatisfaction to their attention no later than 1 year from the date of the act or omission being complained about, or 1 year from when the complainant should reasonably have known that there was cause for complaint. However, there can be exceptions so please contact The Legal Ombudsman direct if you wish to know the precise detail.
