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: That's nearly a century of experience between them. We've also seen a negative review of a criminal law firm because they refused to take on the person's divorce case. So how can you tell the actual experience levels within a firm if founding dates are meaningless? ...


Amy King Solicitor: It's a great resource to bear in mind. So does the age of a company's brand name mean anything? class="infoquote "Sound legal advice is based on years of training, hard work, and passion, as well as familiarity with legislation and precedent and sound consideratio...


Baker Hardman Ltd: Some have https: www.express.co.uk finance personalfinance 1782733 scam-warning-home-deposit-hackers-online" handed thousands of pounds over to scammers< a> sometimes based on a single email. It sounds great, but most firms will make claims such as these on their websites...


Brian Barr Ltd: It provides a wealth of information on any of the firms and people registered with them including trading names, alternative contact details, other offices, regulatory status, plus the qualification dates and chosen areas of law for each solicitor within a firm. The majority...


Brodies Solicitors LLP: The firm's branding usually includes the main name even if it does sometimes get area specific such as the Abu Dhabi office being run by Brodies Middle East LLP.

Calio Claims by Lindsays: For legal help south of the border we always recommend people check out The Law Society of England & Wales' website to get a wealth of background information. class="infoquote "Wherever possible, we aim to deal with claims on a "no-win, no-fee basis" which means tha...


Cook Law in Wirral: But they tend not to run online to discuss their criminal charges, will, messy divorce, or bankruptcy. Either way we always recommend reading the actual comments rather than flicking through star ratings. A firm that seems to mention it's connection to the area on every pa...


Cullimore Dutton Solicitors Ltd: It shows the firm has staff on board from across 5 decades including Catherine Hyatt who qualified in 1987, Susan Alexander in 1994, Philip Appleby in 2009, Sarah Butt in 2019, right up to their newest member in 2021. class="infoquote "We believe that consulting a sol...


CWJ Solicitors & Notaries: Let's be honest, practically no one is ever fully happy with how their house sale goes. There are also mentions of Clarkson Wright & Jakes Notaries.

Defank Solicitors Croydon: We have seen notes about a Defank Solicitor in Croydon but that seems to be the same firm as this one based slightly further north in Greater London. But you can get a 40-year veteran lawyer from a 1-year old law brand, and a 1-year newbie lawyer from a 200-year old law firm...


Drummond and Miller Solicitors: Also keep in mind that even if a firm has an 'and' in the name, web addresses cannot contain ampersands. Any concerns, ring your actual solicitor to check. class="infoquote "Words can’t express our gratitude for your kindness" "we had chosen the right lawyer to ha...


Eatons Solicitors Ltd: Eatons don't use any actual wording tricks that we saw. We don't think the age of the brand should sway you. But there won't be a 150 year old guru sat behind a desk monitoring everything. Property sales are the only area of law where we have seen people from th...

Frei Solicitors Ltd: The amount of legal work required to buy, sell and just own a house is huge.

Harrisons Thames Valley Solicitors LLP: Call someone you know at the firm immediately. It did for "caversham" and "woodley". The 'feel' of a firm is lost to the 'look' of it.

Kee Solicitors Family Law: We can't even link to an actual page detailing just the solicitor's names.
