New agreement with ACCA published

The Legal Ombudsman has today published its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) on this website.

The document is an agreement between our two organisations, outlining how we will work together following the Legal Services Board’s decision to approve ACCA to start authorising probate activities. This means that the Legal Ombudsman will be able to consider complaints from consumers who have received a legal service from accountants authorised for probate by ACCA.

View the new MoU on the Legal Ombudsman’s master web page on our website. For more details about ACCA, please visit their website.
