Legal Ombudsman Complaint against Belmont and Lowe

Belmont and Lowe were selected to process the estate of my late husband in 2008. Probate still has not been achieved and they stepped down from their duties without any formal notification. I entered a complaint against them with the Legal Ombudsman who upheld 5 out of 8 of my complaints as follows:
Reference: D008903
Date of decision: 02/06/23
To pay compensation for emotional impact and disruption caused over a period of nearly 16 years
Complaint - cost information deficient
Failure to follow instructions
Failure to progress the matter
Poor Service - YES
Complaint handling reasonable - NO
