Re: Solicitors costs now in debt.
No-one is disputing that, if the solicitor's complaints procedure doesn't resolve janeG's issues, the Legal Ombudsman is the next step.
However, the post of mine that you've quoted was aimed at informing that when making a decision the Legal Ombudsman 'will take into account' (but is not bound by) a decision a court might make, a code of conduct and good practice.
