The recent update to the CQS Core Practice Management Standards (CPMS) requires CQS firms to have a policy in place for client care (s6.1).

Policy documents can be time-consuming and difficult to prepare without a Policy Template as a starting point.

The Client Care Policy Template includes reference to:

Competence and client acceptance
Conveyancing quotations
Confidentiality
Responsiveness and managing expectations
Referring clients to third parties
The updated Legal Ombudsman Scheme Rules which come into force from 1 April 2023

...as well as other formalities and general obligations as required under 6.1 of the CPMS.
