If you have concerns about a lawyer, you can make a complaint to the BC Law Society. Learn how to make a complaint and what to expect from the process.
===If you have a problem with your lawyer’s bill===
The Law Society of BC does not regulate lawyers' fees. If you have a disagreement with your lawyer over the amount of their fees, filing a complaint with the Law Society will not resolve that dispute. There are other steps you can take, however. You can try a free '''mediation program''' offered by the Law Society to help you and your lawyer reach a settlement. Or you can ask the court to '''review''' your lawyer’s bill to ensure the fees are reasonable. We explain these options in our information on [[Lawyers' Fees (Script No. 438)|lawyers' fees (no. 438)]].
