OLC Strategy 2024-27 and Business Plan and Budget 2025-26

OLC 2024-27 Strategy

The OLC’s strategy sets out its vision that LeO is a leading and trusted Ombudsman scheme, where every complaint helps drive better legal services.  

This reflects the OLC’s ambition to build LeO’s impact in the legal services sector, by sharing more of its unique insight and constructive feedback on how to prevent legal service complaints arising and improve complaints handling.  

At the same time, it will ensure LeO continues to improve the experience of consumers and legal service providers relying on it for a fair outcome to their complaint at the earliest possible stage.

2025-26 OLC Business Plan and Budget

2025-26 is the second year of work under the Office for Legal Complaints’ 2024-27 Strategy for the Legal Ombudsman.

Building on the improvements LeO has already made in improving the experience of consumers and legal service providers, and the progress made with sharing more of LeO's insights, the Business Plan sets out what LeO will deliver in 2025/26.
