Office of the Legal Services Complaints Commissioner
The Legal Services Complaints Commissioner is an independent, government-appointed regulator whose main powers were set out in the Access to Justice Act 1999 and who is appointed until the closure of the OLSCC on 31 March 2010, by which time the Legal Services Board, the new overarching regulator, will be fully operational.
