Service Failure

I am a paying client of LegalWise and have experienced serious service failures when seeking assistance with a labour matter. My requests were met with delays, poor communication, and no effective escalation despite repeated contact. When I lodged a formal complaint, LegalWise attempted to shift responsibility onto me by requiring that I identify specific call dates and motivate access to call recordings that are already within their control. This is an unreasonable approach and undermines confidence in their complaints-handling process.

LegalWise continues to deduct monthly premiums while failing to deliver the level of service clients are paying for, which raises concerns in terms of the Consumer Protection Act, including the right to fair, reasonable, and timely service and value for money. Access to competent and responsive legal support is LegalWise’s core offering, yet this was absent when it mattered most. I am still awaiting a transparent investigation, disclosure of relevant records, and a reasoned written outcome. Consumers should carefully consider whether LegalWise’s practices align with their obligations under the CPA.
