Dear Mr Nicholls
Thank you for your enquiry. Please
could you let me know the name of your architect so that I can check whether
(s)he is a member. The RIBA can only deal with complaints against its members
and not all architects are members of the RIBA. However, all member practices
are required to have a written complaints procedure and any formal complaint
should be addressed to the practice in the first instance. Please see the
following link to the RIBA Code of Professional Conduct: https://www.architecture.com/RIBA/Professionalsupport/Professionalstandards/CodeOfConduct.aspx
The RIBA’s powers are limited to the
membership status of the member concerned. If you have a written agreement,
there may be a clause on what to do in the event of a dispute.
The RIBA is unable to provide legal
advice, however, we have a dispute resolution service whereby we can nominate
an independent adjudicator. For this and further information on dispute
resolution services, please see the following link: https://www.architecture.com/RIBA/Professionalsupport/Professionalstandards/DisputeResolution.aspx

Tricia Lawton

Hello
The gentle man’s name is “John Evennett” Architect town and planning landscape consultant, church farm house, tatterford,fakehham, nr21 7az.
On his paperwork he is using your “RIBA chartered architect” logo and also he has piggy backed off his sons firm
Here is one of johns web pages showing your logo
the short story is we paid john on two accounts to provide drawings for a listed buiding project we are on. He submitted the drawings and planning have continually disputed the standard of detail and lack of information they have asked for. John has point blankly argued with them, said they are incompetent and he is right they are wrong. Subsequently th eplans have been refused, sent back to john along with the fees and they have said his work is not u to scratch. John has been doing tis for over 2 years now and made so many excuses. I even had him on any job and he did the same, the clients in the end said they wanted him off site and for him to never come back (there is more documented proof, the clients were police officers so not making a fuss). I have asked john for the monies back he ignores any attempt to return the clients money, blames us for the situation and so on, he is incompetent and argumentative, so I contacted an independent body to see if they could mediate for us. This just ended up in school ground antics so I ceased all proceedings and have now been asked to pick this up again by the client.
yours sincerely
Mr S J Nicholls (site manager)

Dear Mr Nicholls
Thank you for your reply. I can confirm that Mr Evennett is a chartered member of the RIBA. If you wish to make a formal complaint against him, you should take this up with the practice in the first instance. All member practices are required to have a written complaints procedure. Please see the following link to the RIBA Code of Professional Conduct: https://www.architecture.com/RIBA/Professionalsupport/Professionalstandards/CodeOfConduct.aspx

I have taken this up with him and as he is the only member of his team I am led to believe then I’ve completed step one. Please correct me but if your limited to what you can do what exactly do you stand for? Your just a logo that’s actually not giving the client any sort of support and the architect gets to look like he is a member of an affiliated company that is there to look after the client. But this seems not so? I am a member of various parties that honour my work to the potential client and if I have a dispute against me they intervene and suspend my membership or annul my membership so I can no longer fly their flags on my vans or website.
Are you not accreditable for your members at all? What do you actually do or stand for then?
I have set about documenting everything that has happened so that the whole file can be used in court and we are in the process of starting a blog/Facebook page etc so this man cannot treat people like he is doing, surely your company does not wish for its creditability to be shown as a farce ?
As I mentioned I could be reading your emails wrong? It does come across like you’re not going to do anything so once again what is the point of the “RIBA”?
yours sincerely
