Welcome to the Office of the Legal Services Commissioner’s website.
The OLSC receives all complaints about solicitors and barristers in New South Wales.
The OLSC also oversees the investigation of complaints about the conduct of practitioners and plays a major role in resolving consumer disputes.
The Legal Profession Act 2004 came into effect on 1 October 2005 and applies to all complaints lodged after that date. The Legal Profession Act 1987 continues to apply to all complaints lodged prior to that date.
OLSC staff cannot provide legal advice. If you need legal advice, you may contact LawAccess, a free government service that provides information and referral to services that can help you with your legal problem. Alternatively, you may contact Legal Information Access Centre (LIAC) for free access to legal information through the State Library and NSW public libraries.
