Complaints
​
Should you feel that the level of service you have received from a barrister at Central Court Chambers falls short of the expected standard then in the first instance it is suggested that you make a complaint direct to chambers via the contact page. If the response you receive is unsatisfactory or wish that your complaint is reviewed independently then a complaint may be made to the Legal Ombudsman. Details of the complaints procedure may be found here.
