LPC contact routes for different enquiries
The page describes different routes depending on the type of LPC enquiry. General questions can start with the national office, while provincial offices provide regional contact points. The existing LPC contact form also allows users to choose a province and select a subject.
- General enquiries and support: use the national telephone number 010 001 8500 or info@lpc.org.za for standard questions regarding legal practice rules, certificates or administrative guidance.
- Applications and enrolments: the page identifies admissions, enrolments, examinations and practical vocational training as specific enquiry types.
- Complaints and compliance: complaints about legal practitioners follow a formal complaints process rather than only a general telephone enquiry.
LPC website, contact form and practitioner lists
The page identifies www.lpc.org.za as the LPC website. It says the site provides access to downloadable forms, examination schedules, practice guidelines and online communication tools.
The LPC website contact form allows users to categorise a message and choose a province. The subjects listed on the page are Complaints, Exams, Certificates, Admissions / Enrolments, Practical Vocational Training and Other.
To check whether an attorney or advocate is on the roll, the page directs users to the List of Legal Practitioners under Members of the Public at lpc.org.za/members-of-the-public/list-of-legal-practitioners/. The same section also has a List of Legal Firms and a list of struck-off and suspended practitioners.

LPC complaints contact route
If the matter is a grievance against a legal practitioner, the Legal Practice Council handles professional conduct complaints in accordance with the Legal Practice Act.

It describes completing and signing a formal complaint form and submitting it with supporting evidence through the designated official submission route.
What to prepare before contacting the LPC
The information to prepare depends on the enquiry. The current page recommends keeping the relevant details and supporting documents together before contacting the LPC by phone, email or digital form.
- Full names, registration details or practice numbers of the relevant legal practitioner or firm, if applicable.
- Clear reference numbers, dates and copies of previous correspondence.
- Supporting documents such as affidavits, formal complaint forms, proof of payment or relevant agreements.
The page also advises against sending highly sensitive identity documents or banking credentials unless they are explicitly requested through a secure, verified official channel.
