Follow three simple steps to ensure your complaints are officially heard and addressed by our experienced lawyers.

​

Step 1: Share your concerns with your lawyer

First, we request you to inform your lawyer or any designated member of our team handling your case. You can share your complaint via email, phone call or post a written complaint to our headquarters.

 

That said, clients that are unsure of sharing the problem directly with the representative can notify their lawyer’s supervisor. We expect our managers and lawyers to listen to and respond to complaints regardless of the situation attentively.

​

If your lawyer and their supervisor fail to address or respond to your concerns, you can proceed to step two.

​

Step 2: Notify the Compliance Officer

MRG Solicitors understand that legal issues can be complex and require an objective opinion when dealing with client complaints. That is why we have appointed a compliance officer to review requests and resolve the conflict according to legal rules and regulations.

​

You can contact our compliance officer and director of the firm Mr Ahmed Wasim via email at awasim@mrgsolicitors.co.uk or by calling the telephone number 0161 529 9776.

​

Internal Investigation

Once the officer receives your complaint, they will conduct an internal investigation to verify the facts. This can take approximately 15-30 business days and maybe more, depending on the issues. However, we acknowledge recipes within the 5-7 business after you sent the complaint letter.

​

If you have not received a response within that period, we strongly advise you to send a follow-up message or reminder. We will try our best to share an update within three working days.

​

During our investigation, we will discuss the issue with your designated lawyer, their supervisors, and experienced lawyers from MRG Solicitors involved in the case. You will receive a comprehensive report on our findings via email/post. Additionally, we might schedule a one-on-one meeting to discuss the matter further to figure out an acceptable resolution.

​

Nevertheless, we give clients the right to report a complaint to an independent agency if:

​

• Our reasoning and resolution do not meet client expectations.

• The client believes our assessment was unjust, with rational reasoning as to why they consider this

• A client and our legal team are unable to resolve the problem through Alternative Dispute Resolution methods

You move on to step three if we fail to resolve the problem.

​

Step 3: Seeking external support

Clients can file a complaint with the Legal Ombudsman.

​

​

MRG Solicitors will comply with the decision made by the Legal Ombudsman. You can entrust us to hold ourselves accountable and make amends if the alleged complaints are justified. Rest assured, client interest remains at the core of our legal services, regardless of this situation.
