Want Experienced Opinions from the Industry?

Not enough? Well not to worry. Here are some more of the helpful information articles our staff have drawn together and published on our main 1to1Legal website:

2 Harcourt Chambers: These variant firms are separate teams of barristers despite sharing the same address. As you can see, each is still specifically about one particular barrister. That's because whilst the head office is technically located in the same building, most barristers work from home...


A City Law Firm: This is something to watch out for though. However for business to business service providers such as A City Law Firm such testimonials pages are usually a little different. class="infoquote "We can be flexible with our fee structure and will consider differen...


Backhouse Solicitors Ltd: A decent mix of seasoned professionals with young blood which you'd hope to see in any professional services firm. Whilst many people are happy to post about a pizza they've just ordered, most do not wish to discuss their messy divorce, bankruptcy, or life changing injury ...


Beers Solicitors LLP: This article is therefore going to sound quite 'pro' their firm , making it look almost like something they wrote themselves and paid us to publish. Obviously alternatives such as www.beers.com or .co.uk bring up beverage related websites and none of the beerllp variants we...


Bellax Solicitors: Luckily (again) you can use the Law Society website to look up whether the solicitor you've been chatting to does actually focus on your type of case. For today's example we'll be using the Bell Lax Solicitor's website. This is important because if you are swayed by ei...


Bridge McFarland Solicitors: There are many resources available to you though and many things you might not have considered when checking a legal professional's website. That's a good mix of seasoned heads with fresh eyes . That means if you see a firm claiming a wealth of experience, you ...


Brown & Co Solicitors: This snippet from the Brown & Co website is far more confrontational about the bad alternatives available and not the typical vague sales pitch. You'll get a lot of opinions on social boards or 'help' articles about the pros cons of using a large law firm, a small local fi...


Buchanan & Co Solicitors Ltd: This is hugely important because of the immense number of scams involving property matters. Buchanan and Company do have a Testimonials page on their website. Luckily there is a great resource online with The Law Society of England & Wales who provide a wealt...

Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors Ltd: So don't dismiss such offers lightly. Not every firm is upfront about their areas of law or years of experience like Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors. While people are comfortable going online to say whether they like a pizza restaurant or not - they are less inclined to...


Burton & Co Quality Solicitors: Burton and Co LLP https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 466124 burton-co-llp" are registered with< a> The Law Society of England & Wales which is great because it is by far the best. Therefore they believe leaving the negative review anywhere is 'probably fine'. ...


Calio Claims by Lindsays: The office details for each location are the same. First is that every personal injury firm should charge you no fees at all if they lose your case. In all of our articles about law firms we try to cover details about the firm themselves but also any general tips that stand ...


Cook's Solicitors: All trading names, office locations, languages spoken, case types handled, solicitors' qualification dates, and more are usually available. class="infoquote "We are a small firm and we pride ourselves on being small enough to care."< div> This is one of the things...


David Stinson & Co Solicitors: For more difficult cases such as medical negligence against the NHS, most lawyers will ask for a conditional fee arrangement. However, we've been reviewing and working with legal professionals for over twenty years so it's part of our daily lives. It seems to be a uni...


Disrepair Claims UK: The second means that there are no fees to pay whether you win OR lose. Most of the time unregulated claims resellers hide out on social media sites like Facebook. The first means that if your case loses you have nothing to pay. Because we're trying to get people direc...


Drummond and Miller Solicitors: But it does mean there are no longer half a dozen known brand name firm's in a given local area where everyone knows their reputation. The law is constantly changing , but law firms themselves didn't really seem to change for a few centuries. But just be wary and be careful...


EDC Lord Solicitors: This is an excellent way for potential clients to get to know the lawyers at EDC Lord and determine whether they have the experience and expertise needed to handle their legal matter. The website also features profiles of the firm's lawyers , with detailed biographies...


Foster & Coleman Solicitors: People have no problem jumping online to type their thoughts about a local pizza place or lamp store - they are less likely to rush to tell everyone how their bankruptcy, messy divorce, or criminal law case is going. For example you'd obviously be much better off with a ...


Frazer Coogans Solicitors: 'One of' doesn't distinguish how many is included in that group (compared to clearer statements such as 'top 10' might do). But on a law website it can look to some as almost brand new. If you look at the last quoted positive review above you'll see that there were pro...


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. class="infoquote "extremely clear, concise, practical and courteous" "very happy with the co...


Guardian Law Ltd: This is all very important to consider though because there are a lot of scams targeting clients of lawyers these days. Please also note that the firm's original HR site at www.yourhrlawyer.co.uk has now moved to www.guardian.online as a separate resources. cl...


Hill House Chambers Barristers: But it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the scam of ' https: www.ncsc.gov.uk guidance phishing" phishing< a>' and maybe read a few articles about https: www.takefive-stopfraud.org.uk conveyancing-scams " conveyancing scams< a> to see just how bad it can be if ...


JPS Walker Solicitors: that they are 'living in the past', 'unfriendly', or 'inexperience'). But if every firm is claiming such, then it's not much use to potential clients as a distinguishing feature. We aim to maintain our traditional values whilst offering an effective and first class no win no...


Lefevres Scotland Ltd: Either way, just be aware of which site you are on when searching the web and never discuss payments via email. . A quick note on navigation too. Sometimes even all the images look the same. It's just that for Litigation matters, solicitors tend to list all the various...


LS Legal Solicitors: For example managing director Liliya Scott qualified in 2007, Jasmin Bugg in 2018, Lubov Galyarnyk in 2006, right up to Olena Lux who joined the ranks of lawyers in 2022. For example, many people seek specialist firms for cases such as Motoring Offences, Divorce, and Conveya...


Mac Jones Solicitors: But hopefully you'll be able to check up on what prior clients thought of the firm's communication and explanation skills through third party forums like https: www.google.com search?q=Mackenzie+Jones+Solicitor+chester&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&sxsrf=ALiCzsalznzwgcAibs6C...


MJV Law Solicitors: A few tips on independent comment boards: Read through those comments and never rely on average star ratings. That's well over 50 years between just the two of them. Such as: class="infoquote "We have around 50 years combined experience of acting for people and ...


Fentimans My Law Matters: So what are third party boards like Google, Facebook, Yell.com, etc. It's certainly something to bear in mind. The official site we link to above is www.mylawmatters.co.uk but www.mylawmatters.com does not redirect you there. They provide all alternate trading names, o...


Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors Ltd: It's not clear why so many are falling for this. class="infoquote "We will always be honest about whether we can help you, what you can expect from us, and what it will cost."< div>. You may therefore see some cached pages on our site and pages on others which might l...

Cullimore Dutton Solicitors Ltd: This combined with our impressive depth of knowledge and expertise ensures that we provide a solution focused approach for our clients."< div> For example, you may not have noticed the difference in wording when it comes to claims about establishment. So it's not as dr...


One Law Solicitors & Barristers: Despite the two words being generic terms (i.e. So always make sure you're on the correct site and never discuss payments via email. . This is due to the fact most testimonials are obtained via some sort of post-service questionnaire. The main problem in such situations is ...


LRose Law Ltd: Housing Disrepair & Other Litigation"< div> Statements like these on various law firm's websites can be confusing because it doesn't seem to equate that you can be a 'specialist' of a such a long list of anything. This isn't too much of a concern though as Litig...


Simper Law: class="infoquote "our practice has quickly gained a good reputation within the legal world"< div> In most industries these days people praise the 'new'. class="infoquote "Between them, our solicitors have around 50 years' experience in law, and are passiona...


Smith & Graham Solicitors: Unfortunately some negative ratings had no comments with them in order to know if the complaint was valid or even about the correct firm. class="infoquote "always available when we had questions" "Fair priced and transparent in their dealings" "responsive and alw...


Stowe Family Law Solicitors: Some phrases may seem throwaway such as: class="infoquote "A tailored approach from a team that really understands family law."< div> Which again you've probably seen similarly worded statements on a lot of other firm's websites. We always say that experience is...


Summerfield Browne: However, since this firm handles business matters as well we gave them a little more weight as the company's own brand is stated behind their praise. When Covid hit many companies across all industries realised they can do the job just as easily from their own home offic...


Swain and Co Solicitors: That's why even though the public review system has massive flaws, if used well it can still be a great tool . But we always recommend reading actual comments rather than relying on simple star ratings when it comes to law firms. That's just plain rude. Young and Co have th...


Thaxted Legal Immigration: One - that they are interested in being generally helpful to people seeking such help. There are also several other Ltd companies with Thaxted in the name so just pay close attention when looking up things like reviews. The latter being about the town with that name. So what...


The Lady Barrister: class="infoquote "In her immigration law practice, she represents a variety of clients facing serious matters which includes matters involving young and vulnerable clients."< div> On navigation, as we said we're currently linking to her www.theladybarrister.co....


The Legal Practice Solicitors: If someone calls saying they are from your solicitor's office and you don't recognise the person - never feel uncomfortable about saying you're going to hang up and ring them back on the official phone number you have. Today's article uses a firm actually called 'The Legal P...


The Law Partnership Ltd: Unfortunately there are more than a dozen ways to be a specialist or non-specialist firm. Lots of people make mistakes leaving reviews so the best thing to do is look for any positive or negative 'themes' amongst the actual written feedback left by people. This includes alte...


WH Law Ltd: The main thing to remember is that a lack of reviews is not a negative sign. They are all very positive, mention Waleed by name and often discussed what the case was for. class="infoquote "WH Solicitors is a specialist immigration solicitors firm based in Woking, S...


Wildcat Law Solicitors: If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 9184 wildcat-law-ltd" check the page< a> for Wildcat Law on the Law Society site you can see a range of legal experience including David Burrows who qualified in 1973, Aidan Loy in 1997, Ceri Stafford in 2003, Nichola Gord...


Wilford Smith: This is very different from firms that claim ancient heritages such as 'established in 1881'. For example: one of the largest Conveyancing firms in the UK (My Home Move) have a current rating of 3.1 stars out of 500+ reviews on Google. Clearly there is not a 200-year-...


Woodstock Legal Services Ltd: There was also only one similarly named firm of Woodstock Solicitors. Whilst there is a definite 'perfect professional' curve between experience and age, the fact this firm has qualified people from across the last five decades is clearly a good sign. But please rea...


Young & Co Solicitors: So any firm that still works with Legal Aid gets a few extra brownie points from us . Normally we also praise The Law Society of England & Wales for their incredibly useful website (which is definitely is) but they seem to have dropped the ball a bit when it came to Yo...
