The people at 1to1Legal have been working in the industry for over 20 years and have worked with hundreds of firms and thousands of solicitors. Here are links to our colleagues unbias comments on firms we know:

A.C.S.L. Solicitors: All of these statements sound great. Always make sure you are on the correct website and never discuss payment details via email.. class="infoquote "All went smoothly and they kept me informed at each stage" "They saved me money along the way too" "professional an...


Amy King Solicitor: There are other factors you can look into. Many don't work for an established brand name at all and strike out on their own. It's a good sentiment. There is no hard and fast rule. The concept in TV shows such as Boston Legal where a large established firm's name can strike ...


Baker Hardman Ltd: There are plenty of really good, experienced paralegals out there. You may have already noticed many of them use similar sales language and images. However, some firms employ paralegals to do most of the work and interact with the client. The official main site is www.bake...


Brian Barr Ltd: The firm's branding is reflected in the web address with the official site being simply www.brianbarr.co.uk (www.brianbarr.com does not redirect there). So does that instantly make them a better choice? Certainly a specialist for any case type is preferrable whether it's t...


Brodies Solicitors LLP: Since Brodies Solicitors LLP has registered an office in London, you can see all the details about this Scottish firm on the English Welsh legal professionals database. But these days, the majority of law firms we work with are at varying points on that scale between those ...


Cook Law in Wirral: You will need a law firm authorised to work in Scotland for Scottish cases, Northern Ireland for NI cases, and Republic of Ireland for ROI cases. They handled a wide range of services and if you wanted something done, you went down or rang for an appointment. It's no...


Crockett Solicitors: Today's article covers a specialist law firm. This firm's claim of 1991 seems quite reasonable. class="infoquote "Crockett & Co Solicitors is your Leeds family lawyer with years of experience and one of the only firms in Leeds to offer Legal Aid assistance."< div> ...


CWJ Solicitors & Notaries: There are also mentions of Clarkson Wright & Jakes Notaries. The Law Society also lists the qualification dates of each solicitor within any firm. Underneath this snippet from the firm's website, it also states the firm was founded in 1875 before moving to Orpington, ...


Defank Solicitors Croydon: For all you know the award was for best logo design which doesn't help with your legal matter. As you go through the hundreds of law firm websites available for legal services in the UK, you've probably noticed a lot use the same sort of wording, images, and make the same cl...


Eatons Solicitors Ltd: Partner David Butterfield qualified in 1977, John Brown in 1982, Steven Gilbey in 1991, Claire Roberts in 2003, with Fiona McQuillan jumping into the practice of law in the relatively recent 2014. So absolutely, for law firms at least you need to read the actual comments f...


EMD Law Solicitors: But a lot of firms can seem to fit into that box with many using similar site wording, making similar promises, and even using similar images on their pages. But thankfully it's not a selling point they push like some firms do. That of a sizeable, high street office with exp...


England & Derbyshire Solicitors: Those are very different from each other. Because sometimes a large firm handling several different types of cases might actually have a specialist solicitor on staff for each one of the case types listed. There are hundreds of websites set up to look like they provide law-r...

Nero Legal Solicitors: class="infoquote "From the complex to the unusual at Nero we pride ourself in the ability to provide truly practical conveyancing advice and up to date property advice to save home movers thousands of pounds."< div> This quote is from the front page of the law f...


Eve Lake Conveyancing: This is hugely important to note because for property matters you absolutely need to make sure you are on the correct site and only discussing the sale with your firm. These are usually a lower cost option compared to a conveyancing solicitor. If they are not on your...


Farah Family Law: class="infoquote "Are you thinking about a divorce? Are you worried about separation finances? Has your partner abducted your child? Have you been subjected to domestic violence?"< div> That's the opening paragraph from the website of Farah Family Law. One firm...


Frei Solicitors Ltd: We know of long established veteran law firms with zero reviews on Google and 1-year startup legal practices with a few dozen comments. The amount of legal work required to buy, sell and just own a house is huge. It's time consuming and costly. class="infoquote "We...


Girlings Personal Injury Claims Ltd: Then there is www.girlingspersonalinjury.co.uk which hosts the specialist claims site and information. If a law firm with only two solicitors in it handles every case type under the sun, they are clearly not specialists. That certainly looks like a good range of experienced ...


Garden Stirling Burnet: If you look up the reviews of some of the largest conveyancing firms in the UK, you'll see many have an average of only 3 or even just 2 stars. Be aware when searching though that Google has changed how it displays reviews . Sometimes the words firms use to market themselve...


Harrisons Thames Valley Solicitors LLP: People have handed millions in mortgage deposits to fraudsters sometimes simply because they received an official-looking email stating the bank details of their solicitor had changed.

Horsley Holdings Ltd: They are a limited firm and https: www.sra.org.uk consumers register organisation ?sraNumber=629429#headingFirmNames" registered with the SRA< a> (Solicitor Regulation Authority). The firm is also registered with The Law Society of England & Wales which is great. h...


Kee Solicitors Family Law: So if you have flicked through a dozen firms saying they are experts in family matters, how can you tell which is best - or at least best for you? For example, this quote above taken from the Kee Solicitor's website sounds great. 'kee solicitors in aberdeen'. class=...


Large & Gibson Solicitors: This is because that's not the actual name of the firm being discussed. They have a wide range of user-side information such as alternate contact details, any different trading names, areas of law covered, and even languages spoken within the company. They then display the Q...


Divorce Coaching in the UK: Divorce coaching is particularly beneficial for those struggling with indecision, high-conflict situations, or overwhelming emotions. Divorce coaching services are used by a wide range of individuals facing separation or divorce, each with unique challenges and goals. ...


Lyons Law: If you've flicked through half a dozen firms today you'll probably have seen similar names, similar images of people smiling and shaking hands, not to mention the same type of wording. You could get a 1-year qualified lawyer from a 200-year-old firm, or a 40-year veteran fr...


Mark Croft Motor Offence: Because if you've already flicked through a few dozen legal service websites today, you'll have noticed that many use the same wording, make the same promises, and even used practically the same images of people shaking hands and smiling.

Marsden Rawsthorn Solicitors Ltd: There are always problems and delays. That's because the independent boards such as Google, Yelp, Trustpilot and Facebook allow negative comments as well. We are committed to getting the right results for you, for the right fee whilst providing you with a quality service."< ...


McCarthy and Co Solicitors: class="infoquote "An Award Winning Team of Solicitors With A Personal Touch"< div> So what can you do to discern which legal service provider is best for you if you're in an area without a good legal database? The reason third party sites are so helpful in thes...


MPGQS: MPGQS lists comments from previous and current clients on their website: class="infoquote "the highest standards of service and professionalism" "We have instructed MPG on a number of consultancy matters" "I would without hesitation recommend them" "an integral ...


SG Murphy & Co Ltd: Those are all great things to be as a law firm, but certainly there are no firms claiming to be the opposite. A quick note on navigation. At this point if you've been searching for legal services for a few hours already you may be starting to think that they all soun...


Oakwood Property Solicitors: We should make a quick note on navigation. Some firms will try to intimate experience with tag lines about having 'been in business for over forty years' or even ancient founding dates such as 'established in 1891'. The firm's name is actually quite unique so various searche...


PCS Legal Conveyancing: This is because unlike most legal services, much of the buying selling process for property is not in the control of the firm. So it might be an idea to bookmark the site just in case. Again, many people end up picking the conveyancer they like without checking with their mo...

Dispute Resolver Consultancy: ADR describes different ways you can solve a problem without having to go to court ...

Solidaire Law Ltd: Make sure any firm you are thinking of using has https: www.sra.org.uk " an SRA number< a> listed on their site. One downside of the internet is there is often too much choice these days. But if we entered "solidaire luton" the correct firm showed up because Google...


Sternberg Reed Solicitors: Claiming you get better personalised attention within a smaller firm rather than be lost in the crowd. class="infoquote "We are one of the largest law firms in Essex & East London, with offices in Barking, Romford and Grays."< div> That snippet is a quote from t...


Thomas & Thomas Solicitors: Conveyancing firms normally have the lowest ratings out of legal services on the web. Here are some snippets: class="infoquote "The whole process was handled professionally, but at the same time in a friendly manner." "Alun and his team went out of their way" "The...


TWB Probate Solicitors Ltd: Not just for your chances of obtaining the result you want, but for cost as well. class="infoquote "... But there is an area of law with some confusion when it comes to specialisms. Some of us (most of us) may only require the most minimal of guidance. There a...

Walker Foster Ltd: That's more rare than you might expect. A quick note on navigation. The thing to watch for is whether that helps you distinguish one firm from another. The Law Society of England & Wales has an amazing site rivalling anything their counterpart organisations current...


Waterstone PS: For example, for Waterstone they list solicitors Rayhan Ahmed who qualified in 2009, Akeel Hussain (2015), and others right up to Akaash Hussain who joined the profession in 2021. That means you can get a good idea of the expertise and experience of the person you're actua...
