Complaints

We want to give you the best possible service. However, if at any point you become unhappy or concerned about the service we have provided you should inform us immediately so we can do our best to resolve the problem. In the first instance it may be helpful to contact the person who is working on your case to discuss your concerns and we will do our best to resolve any issues. If you would like to make a formal complaint, please contact Elton Aliaj ealiaj@eltonsolicitors.com who has overall responsibility for complaints.  Making a complaint will not affect how we handle your matter.
