LCN may use your personal information together with other information for providing legal services, credit checks, money laundering, marketing, administration and training, and we may disclose information to our service providers and agents for these purposes.

When first taking your instructions, we are required to identify both our client and (if relevant) the ultimate beneficial owner of our client, and we may be required to verify that identity in a number of ways. We may need your assistance to satisfy these requirements. Without compliance with these obligations, we will not be able to act for you.

LCN Legal Limited is not authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

We are, however, able in certain circumstances to offer a limited range of investment services to clients because the Law Society of England and Wales has been granted designated professional body status by HM Treasury.

We can provide these investment services where they are closely linked to the professional services we have been engaged to provide. We can also provide services in relation to investments, which are a necessary part of our professional services or which we are otherwise permitted to provide under the above Act.

We want to give you the best possible service. However, if at any point you become unhappy or concerned about the service, we have provided then you should inform us immediately, so that we can do our best to resolve the problem.

In the first instance it may be helpful to contact the person who is working on your case to discuss your concerns and we will do our best to resolve any issues. If you would like to make a formal complaint, please address any correspondence to info@lcnlegal.com.

For work carried out by LCN Legal Limited, the Legal Ombudsman in England and Wales may be able to help you if we are unable to resolve your complaint ourselves. They will look at your complaint independently and it will not affect how we handle your case.

Before accepting a complaint for investigation, the Legal Ombudsman will check that you have tried to resolve your complaint with us first. If you have, then you must take your complaint to the Legal Ombudsman:

• Within six months of receiving a final response to your complaint

and

• No more than six years from the date of act/omission; or
• No more than three years from when you should reasonably have known there was cause for complaint.

If you would like more information about the Legal Ombudsman, please contact them.
