The "Guide to Claiming Refunds of Money Paid to a Solicitor" explains how and when you can claim compensation from the Law Society’s Compensation Fund.
You can make a claim if your solicitor was dishonest and you lost money that you gave them or that that they received on your behalf.
The guide also explains how to claim a refund of your money from a solicitor’s firm where the courts or the Law Society now controls the money.
