CWJ Solicitors & Notaries: However we don't think you should base your decision to use any firm on their 'founding' date.

Drummond and Miller Solicitors: Scottish residents however have the Law Society of Scotland website which is slightly better than it was a few years back, but still provides only basic information that doesn't seem to help you learn more than you did before visiting the site.

Eve Lake Conveyancing: That's a tactic you simply don't see anywhere else in legal matters. Sadly that difference is often not explained well by either.

Amy King Solicitor: Most importantly you can see qualification dates. https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk person 6540 amy-jane-king" In this case< a> you can see Amy King qualified in 1995. The internet allows you to find and use a Dover based law practice for your Newcastle injury claim. Or...

Harrisons Thames Valley Solicitors LLP: There are no firms claiming to be unprofessional and bad value for money are there? So these statements don't help much.

HCR Law Solicitors: Because on the site it states their Worcester, Birmingham, Hereford and Ross-on-Wye local offices specialise in this area of personal injury law. Often you can see themes in both the positive and negative comments which can help you define the pros and cons of each firm bett...


Heritage Park Family Law: You can get a 1-year-qualified solicitor from a 150-year-old law firm.

For law firms there may be far less reviews than you expect....


Horsley Holdings Ltd: The snippets above are from testimonials posted on the firm's own site but many prefer to use independent boards such as Google, Facebook or Trustpilot. However, while that is still good advice in our opinion - we know it can be difficult to find information and backg...


Kee Solicitors Family Law: We have one niche firm on our network handling only life-changing injury claims and another that only represents whistleblowers. But we can confidently state it's not.

Mark Croft Motor Offence: That's how uncommon it is. A quick note on navigation though, because the official site is www.mark-croft-solicitor.co.uk with hyphens. Because if you've already flicked through a few dozen legal service websites today, you'll have noticed that many use the same wording, mak...


McCarthy and Co Solicitors: That's terrible and we'll explain more about why later. This includes the Law Societies of both NI and ROI too. This is especially important since the firm handles property matters. One thing to bear in mind though is that while many firms claim to be award winning - ...


SG Murphy & Co Ltd: Other positive things that stood out to us was the firm's attempts to provide information on their site. "< div> . class="infoquote "Our expert Lawyers bring a level of expertise and customer service that sets us apart and ensures your complete satisfaction."...

Thomas & Thomas Solicitors: The official website we link to above is www.thomasandthomassolicitors.co.uk which, although helpfully being the firm's full name, it's a long one to remember or type in without any mistakes. Here are some snippets: class="infoquote "The whole process was handled prof...


The Law Partnership Ltd: class="infoquote "Our Solicitors offer personalised and caring legal services for individuals."< div> Most firms will make a claim about happy clients. While that may have meant something several decades ago, it is no longer any measure of a company's promise. ...


TWB Probate Solicitors Ltd: The SRA's site is not the best laid out though and the search can be difficult to navigate. The Law Society of England & Wales however has a wonderful site with a wealth of information on every firm registered including languages spoken, contact details, staff, link...


UVS Law Ltd: The Immigration Rules specify that an applicant for entry clearance must be outside the UK at the time of application. class="infoquote "Opening up borders and welcoming diverse perspectives not only enriches cultures and economies but also fosters empathy and underst...


Walker Foster Ltd: They also have example prices publicly displayed on their website rather than just saying to call for a quote. We're bombarded with marketing at every turn. So what can you do? There are several independent ways of checking up on a firm but you're going to have to do s...

WYM Legal Solicitors: and an unusual three letter start - we've seen plenty of typos in our search function. But 'leading' is one of those words that doesn't really give you a specific metric you can measure against another firm. No 'wym solicitors' variants seem to exist separately. The offici...


Law Solicitors: If you see a website claiming 'established in 1881' or ancient founding dates - that's obviously meant to give the impression that the firm is well-established with lots of experience . So how can you discern one firm from another? As an example we're going to co...
