LegalWise Failing to Represent My Case Against PAXI

My membership number is ***3. I am extremely disappointed with the service I am receiving from LegalWise South Africa regarding my case against PAXI.

After PAXI lost my parcel, I approached LegalWise expecting professional legal representation and advocacy. Unfortunately, the lawyer assigned to my case has failed to demonstrate the competence or strategy needed to win what should be a straightforward consumer dispute. Instead of actively handling the matter, I am being asked to contact regulatory bodies such as the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa and the Consumer Goods and Services Ombud myself.

It is important to note that PAXI, as a service provider, is clearly liable for the loss of my parcel. The facts are straightforward: the parcel was handed over, payment was made, and no insurance or alternative coverage was disclosed at the point of sending. According to consumer protection regulations and PAXI’s own terms and conditions, they are responsible for ensuring safe delivery or full compensation for loss. Asking me to approach regulatory bodies myself does not replace professional legal advocacy. LegalWise’s current approach leaves key points of liability unaddressed, undermining the strength of my case and increasing the risk of an avoidable loss.

It is extremely disappointing that a company that advertises itself as providing legal protection is struggling to handle a small consumer dispute. If a case as simple as this cannot be managed effectively, it raises serious concerns about how larger, more complex cases would be handled.

I formally request that LegalWise urgently:

1. Review my case thoroughly. 2. Assign a competent legal professional with a clear strategy. 3. Provide written feedback on the plan to resolve the matter.

As a paying member, I expect proper legal representation and accountability. I hope LegalWise takes this complaint seriously and acts immediately to protect my rights and recover my loss from PAXI.
