Our complaints policy

We are committed to providing a high quality legal service to all our clients. When something goes wrong, we need you to tell us about it. This will help us to improve our standards.

4.      Within three days of the meeting, Jonathan Wilde will write to you to confirm what took place and any solutions he has agreed with you.
