A City Law Firm: Some firms may state they have '15 years combined experience' or '10 years experience within the firm' which might mean they have 5x staff each with only 3 years of experience. In fact, just a couple of years ago almost a quarter of firms on our own network were not http...


Backhouse Solicitors Ltd: Because whilst every word in that sentence sounds great - most firms say the exact same thing so it doesn't really help you distinguish one firm from another. would make researching and choosing the right firm for you far more simple and sure. A decent mix of seasoned p...


Beers Solicitors LLP: The branding is always Beers LLP but searches such as 'beers solicitors' or 'beer llp' still brought the correct firm to the top of the results. The Law Society database also lets you see if a firm really does 'specialise' in your case type. Obviously alternatives su...


Bellax Solicitors: The majority of them were very positive with helpful insights into what parts of the service they felt Bell Lax staff excelled at. The first is merely how long the firm's brand name has been active. Surely an enviable staff selection for any firm to have? It should hopef...


Branch Austin McCormick Solicitors: For example, you would never see a bad review for Pizza Hut saying 'they wouldn't sell me a hamburger! ridiculous!!'. If you've read any of our other articles before, you'll know that we don't put a lot of stock in 'established in ...' ancient date claims by law firms. ...


Bridge McFarland Solicitors: Some people have handed over the entire deposit of their house to a fraudulent bank account simply because they received an official looking email saying the payment details had changed. Don't be afraid to call the official number you already have if anything you receive see...

Buchanan & Co Solicitors Ltd: We've been working in the legal industry for over 20 years and have never seen a property law firm without such comments left.

Burton & Co Quality Solicitors: We are now part of a national network of firms under the QualitySolicitors Brand."< div> The firm itself has therefore been a local firm for a very considerable time . But the independent boards were also packed with positive comments as well. Each Saturday we offer ...


Cheshire Estates and Legal Ltd:
It's always great to have options and many of those just mentioned could save considerable time and money over a regular 'high street' law office. There were a few things that we thought crossed the line in trying to be modern though, such as describing their staf...


Cook's Solicitors: So to see a simple claim based on the actual experience levels of the staff within a firm, displays a level of honesty and clarity that perhaps the majority of people will overlook. That can surely only be a positive thing? class="infoquote "Each matter we deal...


David Stinson & Co Solicitors: Be aware that ampersands ('&') can't be part of a web address so something like www.davidstinson&co.co.uk would not exist.

Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors Ltd: class="infoquote "Specialists at Commercial Debt Recovery and Litigation"< div> We often get asked whether a smaller specialist firm is better than a large general practice firm. However we see such claims as basic marketing ploys. One thing to remember is...

Guardian Law Ltd: We've seen a law practice praised for its 'tasty new menu' and a divorce specialist given a zero-star rating for refusing to handle someone's criminal law case. class="infoquote "Our role is to guide and support you through contentious staff issues affecting your busi...


Hill House Chambers Barristers: Why it took so long to make this available to the public in the UK - who knows. A solicitor's firm will have all staff working as if it's one big company together. One thing we think the firm could improve on is fuller profiles for each of the barristers on the books. ...


JPS Walker Solicitors: For example, if you sometimes check the companies house website looking to verify the status of a Limited company, you'll see that JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd was created https: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk company 10213017" in 2016< a>. If you c...


KRS Wills & Probate: Sadly, most law firms we've seen (and we've been reviewing them for over 20 years now) still do not work weekends. So since the owner of this firm states a solicitor background, we looked him up on the local Law Society website. Most of the alternate searches we did suc...


Lefevres Scotland Ltd: The official website we link to is www.lefevres.law which is a fairly new tld. That might not sound like something amazing, but in reality the majority of legal professionals have pulled away from Legal Aid cases completely. So how does this law office fare on the third part...


LS Legal Solicitors: It can get very confusing when trying to find a solicitor for your case. But we were impressed by the fact that as they've grown they seem to have limited that growth only to areas of law where they could provide similar focused expertise. In times gone by (we've been bann...


Mac Jones Solicitors: and recommendations"< div> A quick note on navigation as the firm uses a shortened version for the web address. Normally you have to dig through several 'Excellent! Would recommend!' quotes to get to something useful. 'mackenzie jones solicitors chester' . People simpl...

Some even use identical images of people in suits smiling and shaking hands. Alot of problems such as ' https: www.actionf...


Milners Law LLP: Usually if we see a firm pushing the idea that they are better than other law offices simply because their branding is older - we tend to discover it's because that firm doesn't have much else to brag about. class="infoquote "very professional and helpful and provided...


MJV Law Solicitors: But if it's 10x staff members with an average of only 5 years' experience - we think that's quite a different story to what is being implied. The site has other sales language that is definitely common across those of its peers. We've been working in the legal industry for ...

RM Solicitors: They are far less likely to rush and publicly talk about their messy divorce, bankruptcy, or life-long brain injury. Depending on the type of case you may also be able to receive 100% of your compensation as well. there are plenty of other firms using those two initials. ...


Simper Law: The firm name is Simper Law Ltd and most branding follows that style. Simpler Law https: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk company 09950480" became a Limited firm< a> in 2016 which makes it sound almost a baby compared to many law firms out there. Ki...


Smith & Graham Solicitors: class="infoquote "We are a multi-disciplined law practice providing high quality, cost effective legal services to individuals whatever the legal issue."< div> Bringing back the point about establishment dates: it is very possible to end up with a 1-year experie...


Stowe Family Law Solicitors: Some firms like to write alot about themselves and their services. class="infoquote "Whatever you’re facing as a family, in whatever shape yours is, was, or will be, we’ll be here to listen to what you have to say and help with what you need to do."< div> T...


Swain and Co Solicitors: For example, if you saw a negative 1-star review for Burger King complaining that they don't serve pizza - you would think the reviewer was nuts.

Taylor Price Legal Ltd: Great things to hear. A quick note on navigation then with that point in mind. Surely an ideal mix for any legal service provider? class="infoquote "Our team members have been ranked as leading lawyers, recommended counsel and individuals to watch in Legal 500, C...


Thaxted Legal Immigration: A quick note on navigation though as the firm's official website is www.thaxtedlegal.com which we've linked to above but none of the variants such as www.thaxtedlegal.co.uk, www.thaxted.co.uk or the .com redirect you there. We don't often give out specific advice in th...

If you type those three words into a...


Trojan Solicitors: For example, they claim to be "award-winning" on their front page but there was no real clarity about what those awards are. For example, for many years now people have been able to hire a barrister direct through the new Public Access scheme. Which brings us neatly back to ...


Ullah Law Associates: ULA Solicitors https: www.ulasolicitors.com news-and-cases" showcase several such case studies< a> on their site if that also helps give you a sense of the firm. ULA list positive quotes from peers on their site, which is something we would consider to be much better th...

Wildcat Law Solicitors: That is very rare even now despite Direct Access having been around for over a decade. outdated, impractical, unfriendly, unprofessional, and inexperienced.
