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: Hiring a barrister can absolutely save you time and money compared to going through a solicitor and can cover a wide range of case types. They do not travel into those official addresses every day for work. Thankfully the legal industry is modernising and progress i...


A City Law Firm: So for any firm you're able to see for yourself whether there is a decent amount of experience individually and collaboratory in the firm you're thinking of using. class="infoquote "We are proud to be different. But they certainly sound as if they take their role i...


Beers Solicitors LLP: Again, a very good reason to read the comments fully first. The Law Society database also lets you see if a firm really does 'specialise' in your case type. Alongside their co-workers, the firm as a whole has a decent mix of seasoned professionals with some fresher le...


Bellax Solicitors: For example Richard Kerry qualified in 1993, Natalie Bradshaw in 2009, Saira Walji in 2017, right up to Wioleta Dworak who qualified as a solicitor just in 2020. To be honest, we didn't read more than a couple and even then we skimmed. Sometimes the law office provides testi...


Bridge McFarland Solicitors: That's a good mix of seasoned heads with fresh eyes . class="infoquote "Our solicitors are ... Just typing 'bridge mcfarland' currently shows nothing on Google, you have to type in the full 'bridge mcfarland llp lincoln' or whatever office is nearest you. If it was a...


Brown & Co Solicitors: A quick note on navigation due to the number of firms out there with 'brown' in the name. If a firm states they have a certain number of years' experience 'within the firm' this usually means they've added up all staff's experience together to make the number b...


Buchanan & Co Solicitors Ltd: The page for Buchanan & Co Solicitors shows solicitors Timothy Barlow as having qualified in 1989 and Julia Gibbons in 2001. class="infoquote "Our friendly and approachable team are here to help you deal with whatever legal issue you have"< div> Of course...


Burton & Co Quality Solicitors: But this sort of mixup on the review boards is certainly something to keep in mind when doing some due diligence on law firms, not just Burton & Co. www.burtonlaw.co.uk did redirect there at one point but we haven't seen that for a while. For example John Wood qualified as ...


Calio Claims by Lindsays: But, no-win-no-fee is not the same thing as 100% compensation . The office details for each location are the same. For example, our article on Lindsays which highlights the differences between a large firm with specialists, and a small specialist firm. Those are two very di...


Cook's Solicitors: So the fact Cooks Solicitors have kept the same branding even though it's part of a much larger nationwide organisation could be a very positive sign. So make sure to read the reasons for any negative rating that has been left. Then their client goes on the web to complain...


Cullimore Dutton Solicitors Ltd: 8 staff with 5 years' experience = 40 years. The firm today is Cullimore Dutton Solicitors and hopefully we'll be able to enlighten you a little bit about firms that handle property matters as well. class="infoquote "We believe that consulting a solicitor or financi...


David Stinson & Co Solicitors: They provide all trading names of a firm, alternate office locations, other contact details, languages spoken, and the qualification dates of any solicitors within the firm. The official website is at www.davidstinson.co.uk, and at the moment www.davidstinson.com is a differ...


Disrepair Claims UK: They will put out spammy posts in groups offering cash or supermarket vouchers if you refer a friend for a claim. Unless the law firm you're looking at states both on their website - it is more than likely they take a cut of your compensation as a success fee - also know as ...


EDC Lord Solicitors: The site also includes a blog section that features articles and updates on legal topics of interest, such as employment law, family law, and commercial law. A quick note on navigation. This is especially important in today's digital age, where many people rely on thei...


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. Foster Coleman do have https: www.fosterandcoleman.com...


Frazer Coogans Solicitors: Since the 90s the government has been stripping Legal Aid massively so that these days very few people qualify for help and the lawyers working under legal aid are paid a fraction of what they would normally charge for their services. They provide alternate contact details, ...


Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors Ltd: class="infoquote "Our team of industry experts have been brought together to create a client focused business which understands our clients' individual needs"< div> So where can you find out if a lawyer is meeting those client needs? The place people normally j...


Guardian Law Ltd: They are an excellent resources and we absolutely recommend checking through them. that they are not as easy to find for law professionals compared to other industries. Especially those with multiple offices. To us that indicates the best qualities of a specialist ...

Backhouse Solicitors Ltd: would make researching and choosing the right firm for you far more simple and sure. But because Backhouse Solicitors have NOT make a fuss about it. Note that you may need to enter the full name plus location of a firm (e.g. Backhouse Solicitors actually display several of...


Hill House Chambers Barristers: So always call the official phone number you have to check with the firm about such emails you've received. class="infoquote "Barristers Mohsin Aslam was very professional too when he articulated case" "Spencer's friendly demeanour and flexibility ensures the right ...


JPS Walker Solicitors: This competition has really benefited clients in ensuring firms really buckle down and excel in a certain area. class="infoquote "enabling us to provide expert experienced advice to our clients"< div> The first resource people normally turn to when researching any...


Lefevres Scotland Ltd: The age of the firm's branding is irrelevant and often a very tenuous claim anyway. It's like trying to find a dentist that will work on the NHS funding. So how does this law office fare on the third party forums? The most common ones people visit are https: www.google.com...


LS Legal Solicitors: These days you can find a solicitor specialising in anything from Criminal Law to Housing Disrepair. But we were impressed by the fact that as they've grown they seem to have limited that growth only to areas of law where they could provide similar focused expertise. Hence...


Mac Jones Solicitors: Always make sure you are on the correct website and never discuss payments or bank details via email. If you're not sure, phone the official number you have been given - not the phone number being provided in the actual email you are suspicious of. . in public as they are...


MJV Law Solicitors: Negative ratings aren't always deserved. While seeing such a description is not rare amongst many types of business, it's something we've stopped seeing so much amongst solicitor's practices. Tens of thousands of pounds have ended up in the pockets of fraudsters. We've seen ...


Fentimans My Law Matters: According to the law society website, the solicitors behind My Law Matters have a range of entry dates into the legal professional. There's also frequent bad comments from people who's case was considered ridiculous and refused to be taken on. Most of you wanted to see inde...


Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors Ltd: There is a wealth of data on each registered firm and legal professional including any alternate contact details, trading names, qualification dates, languages spoken and more. If you read '60 years of combined experience' on someone's website it could be that there are two ...


One Law Solicitors & Barristers: For example, the creation of 'no win, no fee' arrangements for litigation matters such as personal injury, medical negligence, housing disrepair, and so on. class="infoquote "ONELAW CHAMBERS will respond to your calls and e-mails promptly."< div> A quick not...


LRose Law Ltd: class="infoquote "Rose Fendlen Law is a trading name of LROSE Law Limited"< div> A quick note on navigation as the firm changed trading name in late 2022. Only actual solicitors will be regulated by the SRA so if a firm does not have a statement such as this on...


RM Solicitors: Normally you will be asked to sign an insurance document to cover the costs of your case. there are plenty of other firms using those two initials. If a firm tries to charge you to discuss an injury claim case, then move on to the next one quickly. Please be aware though tha...


Simper Law: But if you want to find out how many years your actual solicitor has behind them, the best resource is their local law society. For some reason though, the legal industry still has the complete opposite mentality. class="infoquote "outstanding, kind and compassionate"...


Smith & Graham Solicitors: The other item in the original quote is about client happiness and the obvious place to check that out is the public forums such as https: www.google.com search?q=smith+and+graham+middlesbrough&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&sxsrf=ALiCzsb1Y6LZ8l5JrJ4SjzPRjRn5jLyzqg%3A16...


Stowe Family Law Solicitors: class="infoquote "Whatever you’re facing as a family, in whatever shape yours is, was, or will be, we’ll be here to listen to what you have to say and help with what you need to do."< div> To verify claims of whether a firm really does listen to clients, mo...


Summerfield Browne: For example whilst Cambridge has a full 5 stars, the London office has only 3.5 stars at the time we checked. We've been working in the legal industry for over 20 years so have met plenty on the way. class="infoquote "We have a team of highly experienced lawyers who...


Swain and Co Solicitors: Young and Co have their own branded location though so any research is probably best served using the actual Swain&Co trading name. On this occasion though all the https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 563652 young-and-co-solicitors-limited" information is listed< a>...


Thaxted Legal Immigration: This kind of offering demonstrates two things (to us at least). There are countless numbers of fraudsters https: www.telegraph.co.uk money consumer-affairs how-protect-property-fraud-landlord-bank-scam-2022-uk " attempting to coerce property clients< a> into handing over ...


The Lady Barrister: As she works on her own her website is therefore much more focused in providing information about her. (There have been none against Stephanie at the time we checked.) All extra information such as qualifications or even clear specialist areas of law are not provided. ...


The Legal Practice Solicitors: Maintaining such high ratings whilst working in that industry is pretty impressive . . We don't recommend it just for this firm's website either, but for all law offices that handle property matters. The three words of the firm's branding 'the', 'legal', and 'practice' are...


The Law Partnership Ltd: With extra emphasis on good speed during house sales purchases. While that may have meant something several decades ago, it is no longer any measure of a company's promise. Also, not all of them state it clearly. (I know, it sounds simple now.) class="infoquote "We pr...

Wilford Smith: So they could have 10x staff members with only 4 years of experience each. So for Wilford Smith to have such a high positive profile on review sites is very encouraging. Keep aware of which site you are on and never discuss payment details via email.. We think it's quite a ...


Ullah Law Associates: The branding is quite unique and the various alternate searches we tried such as 'ula lawyers', 'ula law firm', etc. Thankfully ULA Solicitors have gone with the traditional photo, work history, and contact details which is great and something we think every law firm shoul...


WH Law Ltd: We've seen law firms praised for their innovative menu and criminal law specialists rated one star for refusing a divorce case. That's not to dismiss larger firms with multiple specialists on board. Does this translate into happy clients? Sadly for all solicit...


Wildcat Law Solicitors: But a quick note on navigation. The firms branding is quite unique so even error searches we tried such as 'wildcat legal' brought up the correct firm. This lets you gauge the amount of actual experience a law firm might have at its disposal. class="infoquote "We offe...


Woodstock Legal Services Ltd: With three words 'woodstock', 'legal' and 'services' there an many variables possible but all we checked such as www.woodstocklegal.co.uk were not active. There are several other things that stood out to us about this firm as well such as the professional https: www.w...


Young & Co Solicitors: Please note that you can't have an ampersand (&) in a web address so anything like www.young&co.law will not exist. class="infoquote "Our specialisation in our key areas make us experts rather than 'jack of all trades'."< div> Areas of law that a firm handles is a...
