Professional negligence against barrister and solicitor

[Bessiebrown]

HI can anyone offer any advice on a professional negligence claim against barrister and solicitor regarding the incorrect drafting of a financial order in financial remedies/divorce which effectively did not match the wording of the previous order and has subsequently led to the loss of periodical payments and joint-lives order.

You have some options, you can find good specialist firm that deal in 'negligence' claims. You could raise the matter with the Legal Ombudsman, that may prove to be unsatisfactory. You should raise complaints with the Law Society and Solicitors Conduct Authority as long as you have evidence of 'negligence'.
