ABS Lawyers Ltd: Luckily there are quite a few good resources to find some deeper and more insightful information about firms that can help you make a decision about which practice or person to use. Some go as far as big bold letters with boastful 'the client is king' banners (slightly sex...


Aconveyancing Ltd: They cover a good range of matters including Right to Buy, New Builds, Shared Ownership, Help to Buy and Part Exchanges. Such as when looking up news articles they had been quoted in. Search for articles on using budget firms to hear of such situations and see if they migh...


Allsop Durn Dearlove: class="infoquote "We try to listen and achieve everything we reasonably can for you. We also noticed someone at the firm has been responding to the positive comments where possible, thanking them for the glowing feedback. You certainly don't want a firm that treats le...


Antony Hodari Legal Services: class="infoquote "Our solicitors will keep you up to date with the progress of your claim throughout and will answer any questions you may have about the claims process."< div> Another thing people always check on are the public reviews in places such as Google, T...


Assured Probate Services: Once you have the name of the law firm you can use the various resource we already recommend such as searching the relevant Law Society's website for background and qualification details. class="infoquote "We are ... Plus many of the consultants have their own websites...


Aspire Licensing & Administrative Services: For example a Level 2 Award in Food Safety in Catering, Level 2 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace, Level 3 Emergency First Aid at Work, and so on. They are therefore not registered with the Law Society of England & Wales or the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA)...


Bilkus and Boyle: This is important because the firm deals with property matters. Quite often it's the fault of the buyer seller or the other party's legal representation. However these information spots are often blank or incomplete, and none show actual qualification dates of the la...


BLZ Solicitors Ltd: No really, that last one actually happens more than we ever thought possible. class="infoquote "We specialise in data breach claims, noise induced hearing loss, immigration and PPI"< div> This, however, is a far more telling sentence from the BLZ Solicitors' webs...


Catteralls in Wakefield: In our opinion, long term existence of a firm's brand is not nearly as important as the experience and expertise of the individual solicitor you are going to work with. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation people 412101 catteralls?Solicitors...


DFA Law Solicitors: A 40-year established firm might stick you with a 1-year experienced solicitor, and a 1-year established firm might have a 40-year experience partner on staff. So how do we know DFA Law have experience staff? Most legal professionals are signed up to a local Law Society. Tit...


Dylan Nair Ltd Solicitors: If a solicitor doesn't have a profile on their website. The official site is https secure for filling your personal details into their contact forms. Don't despair. Although the branding name used is quite unique and the possible spelling typos not likely to be too m...


Special Education Needs Lawyer: But why do we even need such lawyers? Surely there are organisations, laws, and procedures already in place to look after children in a country like ours? class="infoquote "In our experience, some Local Authorities appear to have a default policy of refusing assessment...


Fair Result Divorce: yet. A quick note on navigation. Typically it's only cases such as litigation where firms may do considerable work upfront with an aim to getting paid near the end of the case instead. This gives you our undivided attention."< div>. With the generic words in the brand n...


Fieldfisher Solicitors LLP: class="infoquote "We are renowned for our expertise in handling mesothelioma and other asbestos related disease claims."< div> Luckily, some of the firm's offices are in England which puts them under The Law Society of England & Wales. 100% compensation guaranteed...


Hawkridge & Co Solicitors: But when anything goes wrong, they get the blame. Sometimes over something as simple as a couple of offical looking emails telling them to pay their huge house deposit into a different bank account. That's because whilst people are quite happy to jump online and rave about...


Howe and Co Solicitors: One of our staff worked in immigration (Liverpool) for about a year and confirms it can be a very emotionally strenous environment, and that's just for the workers. Howe & Co have one detailing some of their more high profile cases and some of the firm's background. Th...


Ian Mallon Solicitors Ltd: That's great, and more firms should follow their setup . The goal of 1to1Legal is not to create a massive directory of law firms with as many crammed in as possible. When checking out review boards though, we always suggest you read comments rather than just look at star r...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: So seeing such a huge amount of highly positive reviews about a Conveyancer is almost the stuff of Twilight Zones.. There are many other overly used marketing terms such as "friendly", "traditional", and everything being of "paramount" importance. You'd think that would be a...

Allan Argue and Co Solicitors: The Scottish site has https: www.lawscot.org.uk news-and-events legal-news allan-argue-launches-his-own-practice " several articles about the launch of this firm< a>, but not a lot of good details such as staff, specialties, or qualification dates. You can read an article...


Khan Law Glasgow: The quote above is from the Khan Law website and, in our opinion, is being used appropriately. Even the individual bits about solicitors at a firm only pop up as comment boxes (and not very well on mobile devices). class="infoquote "Specialist Personal Injury Solicito...

Deo Volente Legal: Reviews for property firms are therefore usually much lower than those for firms covering any other type of matter. Followed by solicitors coming into the industry in almost every decade since including Alexander Ude (qualified in 2001) right up to the practically 'green' An...


Levins Solicitors: class="infoquote "For over 30 years now we have continued to build our reputation and to provide legal services of the highest professional standard."< div> The firms website has a considerable number of pages. But as Levins deal with property matters, you need ...


Lindsays Solicitors Scotland: consistently exceeds everything I ask of him"< div> The majority of reviews were very positive indeed. But I'm guessing most people that see articles with companies holding large cheques being handed to a charity rep - have a little cynicism in them too. Most law firms ...


Linkilaw Solicitors Ltd in London: The internet provides access to information, stats, reviews and so on. Many people can also get it entirely wrong. The site is https so should be secure for entering your personal information into their contact forms. The flip side of this is that many commerc...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: The situation was at least slightly covered in https: www.dailymail.co.uk news article-3784457 Huge-rise-debt-judgements-against-families.html" this news piece< a> on the Daily Mail website where Mason Bullock where sought for comment. The reason we were so keen though, w...


McEwan Fraser Legal Scotland: This therefore came across as a little gimmicky. The only common issue we've seen in the search stats is the mis-spelling of 'mckewan' rather than 'mcewan'. However, one of the properties showed a possible selling margin of £60,000 difference between a high and low estimate....


Mckie Legal Solicitors Ltd: We've seen negative reviews about firms that refused to take people's cases. It's not unusual for solicitors to have one or two trading names on the side. The first means no fees if your case loses. The use of trading names is not something to worry about . Most s...


MGBe Legal Ltd: The list official recommendations for using MGBe Legal are therefore quite high. If someone calls saying they are from your solicitor and need to discuss payments - you can always hang up and call the firm back on the official number you have on their documentation just to ...


NV Legal Solicitors: Also, there aren't many scams targeting personal injury claimants at the moment. There are also Blog News style articles with a varying range of information such as 'Mental Capacity – Whose decision?'. It absolutely is possible for a firm to be a specialist in this area in...


OTS Immigration Solicitors: The main web address we link to above is www.otssolicitors.co.uk and currently www.otssolicitors.com does not redirect or have an alternate site. class="infoquote "OTS Solicitors is one of the UK's leading law firms located in the City of London."< div> No matter ...


Pacific Law: However, to state 'pay no attention to this reviewer, they are just a sore loser' has never felt like something they could pull off and look good doing. Some are chargable, some aren't, some are really expensive. There is no 200 year old solicitor imparting guru-style advice...


Penerley Solicitors: For some reason, thousands of people have easily fallen for this. As mentioned before many law firms are stuck in the past and the 9am-5pm, Mon-Fri is still the industry norm. You don't actually have to be a qualified solicitor to sell someone some employee contract template...


Pump Court Chambers Barristers: However to be qualified to handle such, the barrister you speak to should absolutely be capable of informing you quite early on if your case can be handled under those terms before you part with a single penny. A quick note on navigation as there are many chambers usin...


RD Costings Ltd: For some areas you may want a large firm with lots of resources. A whiplash claim against an insurer where the third party has already admitted fault is pretty much a slam dunk. They are not the same thing. For others you may be better off with a Direct Access barrister to ...


Reid and Black Solicitors: class="infoquote "We are widely recognised Legal Experts in Claims"< div> Every single legal practice has a website these days with various catchphrases and sales-pitch sentences like this one. The Law Society of England & Wales also have a much better website th...


Suhail Ahmad at Richmond Legal: To use a description any less than 'expert' would clearly be unwise. The most common typos we'd expect would obviously be www.richmondlegal.co.uk and the .com and neither of them are owned by this company either. class="infoquote "Providing expert legal advice and repr...


Robin Somerville Barrister: He covers a very specialist range though, dealing with commercial and employment issues. Direct Access for the public to barristers has been a hugely welcome change in the legal system . We've seen several consultants and sole practitioners advertising themselves as ha...


Conveyancing Search Providers: However, as already mentioned at the outset of this piece, there often isn't as much to go on when it comes to service providers to the law firms we often write about. So sadly there isn't a lot of independent comments floating around on the third party forums such as Goog...


Springle Solicitors: We did find some reviews on Facebook: class="infoquote "got the outcome we needed in a very short space of time" "would highly recommend and will definitely use again" "very professional throughout and we are so grateful for all the hard work" "Would definatle...


SR Law Solicitors London: General practice solicitors, niche local firms, nationwide multi-office firms, direct access barristers, and specialists only handling a single case type. However, we also have experienced consultants in other areas of law."< div> Most firms will have some sales-pitch s...


Stenfield Solicitors Ltd: We've seen a law firm with a five star review for their pet-friendly cafe. We ran a poll a few years ago which came back in the single digits for people that actually trusted the testimonial pages of company websites. Of course even in these days of 'modern' legal set...


The Injury Solicitor Salford: class="infoquote "The Injury Solicitor is a niche law firm specialising in recovering compensation for our clients who have been involved in a Road Traffic Accident"< div> Sadly, many people still can't tell the difference between an actual law firm and a websi...


Thorpe Wilson Ltd: Obviously with the dozens of firms we review on this site, it's impossible for us to come up with dozens of legal matters to test them with as a consumer. But as there are always plenty of forums for clients to express their opinions, we try to help by offering extra inform...


Trust Inheritance Limited: If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation people 495611 trust-inheritance-limited?Solicitors=True" check out the page about< a> this firm on The Law Society of England & Wales' website, you'll be provided with a wide range of data including alternative tradi...


TSABI Ltd Solicitors: So just pay attention to where you are and what you type in. This way, if a firm claims to have years of experience in its staff you can actually check up whether that's true. Many legal professionals are signed up with a local Law Society. You never know what these scammers...
