Want an Experienced Opinion?

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. So you may look at this firm's claim of starting in 2009 as indicating much less experience. We are a team of closely knit legal professionals who all enjoy our jobs every single day."< div> There are many firms out...


Amy King Solicitor: Some people have handed their https: www.express.co.uk finance personalfinance 1782733 scam-warning-home-deposit-hackers-online" entire house deposit< a> over to fraudsters based on just one email telling them the payment details have changed. . class="infoquote ...


Baker Hardman Ltd: However, some firms employ paralegals to do most of the work and interact with the client. Some were complaining about third parties related to the case, while others simply left a negative star rating with no explanation. So what are people saying on the comment forums? ...


Brian Barr Ltd: But expertise is not the whole story. So what are they saying about this firm on the independent forums? class="infoquote "began work immediately and tirelessly on my behalf for over four years" "nothing was too much trouble and communication was exceptional" "hel...


Brodies Solicitors LLP: It's only there you get to hear both sides. Some firms must have had problems or fall short of their promises. So what other factors can you use to distinguish between legal service providers? class="infoquote "Search our team of legal experts, and find the right pers...


Cook Law in Wirral: class="infoquote "Cook Legal is a Wirral law firm. class="infoquote "our solicitors in Wirral can provide clear, practical advice and work quickly and efficiently to help you"< div> One thing people may not know about is that for legal practices in E...


Crockett Solicitors: The site is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal details through their contact form if you'd rather have a callback. It should be noted though, that there are various ways a firm might refer to themselves as a 'specialist' . However we would not suggest putting as mu...


CWJ Solicitors & Notaries: For example at this firm you can see a range of legal professionals with experience stretching over the past five decades. We even see firms claiming to be a mixture of expectations such as large firms claiming a 'family-run feel' or multi-practice firms claiming to be 'spec...


Defank Solicitors Croydon: It's the person taking the case that's most important to you. Any big changes, you need to ring your actual solicitor to check.. There are hundreds of websites out there pretending to look like an official law firm when they are actually simply gathering people's case detail...


Eatons Solicitors Ltd: The negative reviews are where you find out any themes showing a common issue. But there won't be a 150 year old guru sat behind a desk monitoring everything. So how can you tell whether the firm, or your individual solicitor, has a good level of experience? class...


EMD Law Solicitors: There are always different options available and sometimes you don't necessarily need a solicitor. Ones that provide at least a little insight into the firm's dealings with customers, like these snippets above. They do claim a long history with 'established in 1918' on the...


England & Derbyshire Solicitors: Not only that, there's a lot of different types of legal professional to choose from. class="infoquote "Our Family and Matrimonial department is headed by our Solicitor, Madeleine Jones, who has vast experience in handling Divorce, Separation, Child Arrangements, pro...

Nero Legal Solicitors: If you search through a few other conveyancing firms in the UK, you'll see alot of them don't break 3 stars. The sales language can get repetitive too. Some people have https: www.which.co.uk news article friday-afternoon-fraud-the-scam-that-wipes-out-your-house-deposit-in...


Eve Lake Conveyancing: The official full name is Eve Lake Conveyancing & Legal Services with the official web address being www.evelake.co.uk The site is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal details into their callback form. Be alert throughout your transaction. That's a tactic you simply...


Farah Family Law: The site is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal details through their online contact form. One firm in Preston demanded a £5000 retainer before having a consultation. An example of a law firm we can 100% agree is https: www.lawgazette.co.uk commentary-and-opi...


Frei Solicitors Ltd: As you may have noticed if you've flicked through the law firm listings pages of this site, we are not a directory listing every legal practice under the sun across the UK. The firm's offical website follows the branding name www.freisolicitors.com, just watch the spelling o...


Girlings Personal Injury Claims Ltd: It is unrivalled by it's counterparts in https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 471969 girlings-personal-injury-claims-ltd" the useful information< a> provided on each firm including all trading names they go under, alternative contact details, list of solicitors at t...


Garden Stirling Burnet: Some people have https: www.which.co.uk news article scammers-steal-home-deposits-in-callous-conveyancing-scams-afGcO5t39f7o" handed their entire house deposit< a> to a fraudster's bank account sometimes based on nothing more than an official looking email telling them th...


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. So seeing any property firm with a star rating in the 4s such as Harrisons' is unusual. It did for "caversham" and "woodley". The web address www.harrison...


HCR Law Solicitors: Many firms offer 'testimonials' on their websites. We're not satisfied unless we're making a real difference to peoples' lives"< div> That's a snippet from the front page of the HCR site. The main ones seem to be HCR Legal LLP, Harrison Clark Rickerbys Limited, ...


Heritage Park Family Law: This has allowed the number of specialist practices (which before could have been starved for clients, especially in rural areas) to balloon. A solicitor may not be able to represent you in court while a barrister can. If your family law matter is unlikely to require an a...


Horsley Holdings Ltd: While many people will quickly jump online to share their thoughts about a restaurant or spa - they are not so eager to share how their criminal case, divorce, or employment disciplinary matter has gone. We've often said that it's better to have a 40 year experienced lawye...


Kee Solicitors Family Law: But the 'high street solicitor office' handling a wide range of cases was more common. The branding matches the web address with www.keesolicitors.co.uk being the official site. Apart from that though, the site is happily concise providing the information you would want to...


Large & Gibson Solicitors: Many firms provide client testimonials on their website and Large & Gibson do this as well. For Large&Gibson it shows staff such as Richard Wootton who qualified in 1974, Peter Dymock in 1984, Michael Rowland in 1992, right up to the (relatively new) Cara Sandillon-Charlto...


Divorce Coaching in the UK: One of the key benefits of divorce coaching is emotional resilience, helping clients process their emotions in a healthy way. A divorce coach helps clients set realistic goals, understand the process, and communicate effectively with lawyers, co-parents, and other...


Lyons Law: It's strange to think the internet has only been with us just over two decades because it really feels as though the way in which we shop and hire services has changed more in those 20 years than in the 200 before it. Today's article focuses on the law firm Lyons Solicitor...


Mark Croft Motor Offence: class="infoquote "I enjoyed a very successful career in the Magisterial Service as a Senior Legal Advisor before becoming a specialist criminal lawyer in private practice"< div> Luckily the English and Welsh have a great resource online to help in such situat...


Marsden Rawsthorn Solicitors Ltd: However, if you live in England and Wales this is something you can easily check up on. So what are people saying about them online? class="infoquote "took my case very seriously and has spent a lot of time working hard to resolve it" "very knowledgeable and underst...


McCarthy and Co Solicitors: For example if you type 'mccarthy and co in clonakilty' you will see data for that office. It's always a sad thing for us to admit with 1to1Legal being a Scottish firm, but The Law Society of England & Wales has produced a far better and more user friendly website than a...


MPGQS: They assume a lengthy procedure and high costs. Often testimonials supplied by the firm are not taken as seriously as those on public review boards. MPGQS lists comments from previous and current clients on their website: class="infoquote "the highest standards of ser...


SG Murphy & Co Ltd: Unless you put that in exactly you won't get to see even the few details https: www.lawsoc-ni.org sg-murphy-co-ltd411" the organisation does show< a>. Other positive things that stood out to us was the firm's attempts to provide information on their site. If you wa...


Oakwood Property Solicitors: Oakwood have a https: www.oakwoodsolicitors.co.uk all-things-oakwood the-oakwood-solicitors-team " staff information< a> section on their website which is great. But the age of the firm does not indicate the experience level of the solicitors within it. This should mean e...


PCS Legal Conveyancing: It introduces a regulatory name many may not be familiar with . A whole picture is needed. Always check any major change with your acting conveyancer. Here are a few snippets from those sites: class="infoquote "explain everything in details and worked so fast" "ver...

Dispute Resolver Consultancy: It's possible this could be because the firm is using generic terms in the name - i.e. We found a website https: www.tradingstandards.uk consumer-help adr-approved-bodies " listing ADR firms< a> but it seemed to be aimed at specific industries which doesn't match what mos...


Landlord Eviction Solicitor in Southport, Lancs: The website is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal information on the contact form. In fact for most criminal law, divorce, or property matters people want a firm that solely works on that one area of law. If the firm you are researching has several offices, this me...


Solidaire Law Ltd: Solidaire Solicitors is the trading name of Solidaire Law Limited so you may see one or both names listed on regulatory sites such as the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). Above are some snippets from those. When firms had to rely on local word of mouth or distance betw...


Sternberg Reed Solicitors: Finding a product you want online is relatively simple. It seems that no matter what a firm is, they can usually spin it to sound as though they are the best option. The firm provides a considerable number of help articles on their website across a range of cases and subject...


Thomas & Thomas Solicitors: class="infoquote "Whether you are looking for legal advice for personal or business matters, our friendly and professional team is here to help."< div> One thing to watch for are firms that imply< u> experience rather than actually having any. Then you get comp...


TWB Probate Solicitors Ltd: This is to let people realise and choose from more options than they might think are available. This is a group of advisors that have consultants on staff. class="infoquote "... For example, in some cases you may be better off with an accountant or a barrister rath...


UVS Law Ltd: If there are only 2x people in the firm covering a dozen areas of law - they cannot be 'specialists'. Spouse Fiancee) and Leave to Remain, and Investors such as Innovator Founder and Entrepreneur Visas. UK Immigration Law is governed by the Immigration Act 1971, which has un...


Walker Foster Ltd: The official site is www.walkerfoster.com although there is a mirror site on www.walkerfoster.co.uk it is currently showing as not-https secure. So what can you do? There are several independent ways of checking up on a firm but you're going to have to do some leg work...


Waterstone PS: We've known several firms (us included) that needed to take a website offline for days or even weeks because of issues with hackers or just Google messing around with the indexing. At the time of writing it looks as though the firm are in the middle of updating their website...

WYM Legal Solicitors: That includes any alternate trading names, contact details, all office locations, and languages spoken. Either the length of time taken, delays that no-one will take the blame for, extra reports being ordered, and more. class="infoquote "As a CLC accredited conveyance...


Law Solicitors: For example, if you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 26041 all-law-limited" look up a firm< a> on their database it will tell you alternate contact details, other names the firm may go by, languages spoken, and more. As already covered, this firm's name t...
