Complaints Procedure

At KLS Società tra Avvocati a r.l., we are committed to delivering the highest standards of service. However, we recognise that very occasionally things can go wrong and as part of our commitment to quality we have introduced this complaints procedure to establish a process which can be followed to achieve a positive outcome for all.

If you have a complaint regarding our service, your first point of contact should be Petra Bassini, Managing Director. Petra can be contacted by email at ? in writing at KLS Società tra Avvocati a r.l., Via Ostiense 131/L – 00154 Roma (Italy) or by telephone on ?.

Petra will acknowledge your complaint within two working days of receipt. He will provide you with a map of options, which will establish a route towards resolving your complaint. For example, you may be offered a formal or an informal route towards resolution, depending on the nature of your complaint. If the issue relates to greater clarity of our costs, you may simply need a more detailed breakdown of your bill. On the other hand, if your complaint is about whether we have followed your instructions, you may require a more formal route in which both parties provide written evidence.

We will spell out the implications for you and we will re-assure you that you will not be charged for complaining. We shall make it clear how long it will take us to investigate your complaint and that the complaint will be resolved within 8 weeks. We shall explain what, if any, impact your complaint may have upon your claim as soon as possible.

We shall ensure that our communication with you will avoid jargon and be clear, comprehensible and neutral in tone.

Once we have conducted a thorough investigation and established all the facts required to make a decision, we shall share our findings and conclusions with you in a manner which will enable you to understand how we have reached our decision.

If we find that we have provided poor service, we shall offer you a suitable remedy along with a full explanation. If we decide that we offered a reasonable service, we will provide a full and clear explanation about how we reached that decision.
