There may be instances where we will waive this requirement at our discretion. We will confirm to you in writing if a complaint has been made outside the time limit that we are prepared to consider.

3. We will acknowledge your complaint within 5 business days of receipt, identifying the person who will be handling your complaint on behalf of Gravitas Law Ltd.
