Youngs Solicitors: class="infoquote "Our main office is in Longton. It's just that we try to focus on more general discussions about ways to check and things to watch for that can be applied to most law offices generally. It may seem odd for a legal practice to claim they are 'specialist...


Woodstock Legal Services: So when we came across Woodstock Legal Services it was a pleasant surprise to discover their setup, staff, and backgrounds could match some of the larger brandings we work with (and many we don't). Having worked in the legal industry for over 20 years we're still sur...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: We are a firm that puts people first."< div> Again, claiming the customer comes first is something mentioned by practically every single law firm's website. Some firms post testimonials on their sites, but according to our poll last year only 8% of you trust company pro...


Trust Inheritance Ltd: We do ou checks just as much as you should before moving forward with a company. However we hope the information and links provided above at least show why we were more than happy to add Trust Inheritance to our database of recommended firms. Trust Inheritance does have so...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: they won 'best company logo 1999'. For all we know the awards all these solicitors are boasting about could be very old or have nothing to do with legal expertise - e.g. Thanks to the creation of the internet and the resulting modern day marketing - such firms can reach the...


Stephanie Heijdra: She also runs the Winvolved Legal Consultancy using www.winvolvedlegal.co.uk Her name is very unique so you should get a good link appearing at the top of the results. This is despite her working in the industry since at least 2014 according to the BSB certificate. She als...


Thaxted Legal Ltd: class="infoquote "We are a member of the Immigration Law Practitioners Association (ILPA)"< div> So with Thaxted Legal immigration services being overseen by the OISC, members of the ILPA, registered as a limited company with https: find-and-update.company-inf...

Smith and Graham Solicitors: Smith & Graham however seem to fit neither of these descriptions and look unscathed by the recent developments . We've seen law firms with 5 star reviews for their food and 1 star reviews for the bad haircut they got. The number of large multi-office firms only seems...


Taylor Price Solicitors: Taylor Price is registered with The Law Society of England & Wales which has the best user-side offering we know of amongst such organisations. knowing all the loopholes). The emails may contain a link to malware."< div> That quote is https: www.sra.org.uk consumers s...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: Remember, though, that if you search for the firm name only when researching a law office you may get pages of general reviews about the company as a whole. Also be aware that ampersands cannot be in web addresses so there will never be a www.swain&co.com .co.uk address. H...


Summerfield Browne Solicitors: On the whole they are positive, however in the case of https: www.google.com search?q=summerfieldbrowne+cambridge&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&sxsrf=ALiCzsZgtAzd_li97ev6QBMxCnd-bir8EA%3A1661867136831&ei=gBQOY5WlMuyUhbIPkqSo2A4&ved=0ahUKEwiV5erC2e75AhVsSkEAHRISCusQ4dUDCA4&ua...


Stowe Family Law: That's why this statement on the firm's website stood out to us the most out of everything: class="infoquote "We believe you should have the opportunity to speak to your solicitor, without being charged, before you choose to entrust your case to us. So what are people...


Stenfield Solicitors: Never discuss payments or bank details via email and remember that even the most official looking email addresses can be faked. It's not uncommon for a firm claiming 'founded in the 1800s!' to consist mostly of solicitors with only a couple of years' experience. Also at th...


Springle & Co Solicitors: By reducing wasteful overheads, we can improve personal client service. Solicitors are such a firm, specialising in Estate Planning matters such as Wills, Probate, and Powers of Attorney. For example, it states Claire Springle qualified as a solicitor in 2001 so that's ove...


Simper Law Ltd: It also has a few quirks that will allow us to discuss important things to pay attention to when researching the best firm for your specific needs. Our article today is about Simper Law which turns out to be much more of a unique offering than expected. So what are previo...


The Search Bureau: So sadly there isn't a lot of independent comments floating around on the third party forums such as Google, Yelp, Yell, Trustpilot, etc. But it's surely a fair one. Also most of the fraud involved in conveyancing transactions tend to focus on actual buyer seller clients o...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: litigation) follow the same sorts of procedures and have similar issues to contend with. This is quite common for more difficult matters such as medical negligence. class="infoquote "Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors was established in 2007"< div> Considering there's ...


Richmond Legal Ltd: The most common typos we'd expect would obviously be www.richmondlegal.co.uk and the .com and neither of them are owned by this company either. Every single legal professional will state they provide expert legal advice . One good way to check up on a law firm or an in...


Rose Fendlen Law: Because the actions needed for each of the case titles quoted can follow the same general direction and court proceedings if necessary. So whilst an individual solicitor saying they are a specialist in Family Law, Wills, Injuries, Property and Criminal Law doesn't make a who...


Pump Court Chambers: But be aware that if you search for 'pump court barristers' or other related terms you may see www.onepumpcourt.co.uk, www.4pumpcourt.com, www.5pumpcourt.com, www.6pumpcourt.co.uk and more show up the search results. Prior to this new setup, quite often the first time a clie...


Penerley Lawyers: This is because some people's complaints can be ridiculously petty, and some can be attached to the totally wrong firm. But so far we've not seen anything too extreme such as beanbag chairs in the conference room. We really don't advise relying on any individual ratings abou...


Pacific Law: But these days we would say that if the firm can't offer video-chat services they are now getting behind the times. We've also seen dozens of negative reviews followed by comments from the firm stating 'this person has never been a client of ours'. Either way should re...


OneLaw Chambers: So always make sure you're on the correct site and never discuss payments via email. . class="infoquote "ONELAW CHAMBERS ... OneLaw certainly has at least one other independent body backing up their claims as well, being https: www.legal500.com firms 232573-...


My Law Matters: The titular Nicholas Fentiman qualified in 1979, with various other solicitors joining after - right up to Nila Brailey who qualified in 2007. However there were some negative comments that really need to be read. According to the law society website, the solicitors behind M...


Milners Solicitors: So this is much more of a decent offer than it may first appear. By 'regular' we don't mean they are average. class="infoquote "It’s been the same throughout Milners’ 120-year history of delivering the best legal advice."< div> We're not a big fan of firms clai...


Michael Leighton Jones: MLJ Solicitors are registered with The Law Society of England & Wales which is great because they are the best out of all such organisation websites we've seen . Others include Peter FitzGerald who joined the UK legal system in 1996, right up to Sarah Price in 2003. For exa...


Mckie Legal: There are plenty of things you might not have thought of though that can identify a firm as offering more than another. class="infoquote "Ive been asked a few times already 'which Barrister did you use?'"< div> This is a quote from the firm's website relatin...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: The reason we point out common errors is because of how easy it is for people to think they are on the correct site or being emailed from an official address when they are not. Typically we research a firm completely unbias and make the decision based on several fact...


Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: If you check the https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation offices 455061 mackenzie-jones-solicitors-limited" pages on this firm< a> you'll be shown all office addresses, case types handled, alternative contact details, and most importantly - the specialties and ye...


Lindsays Solicitors: consistently exceeds everything I ask of him"< div> The majority of reviews were very positive indeed. But one thing that impressed us about Lindsays is the same sort of lack-of-boasting as we saw with their testimonials page before. Lindsays does have the stand...


Lefevres Law: It's still very much a specialty though. The number of years' experience your actual solicitor has and whether they've spent that time working on a wide range of cases similar to yours is the only timeframe that ultimately matters . class="infoquote "Extensive experie...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: These days though, it's clear people want specialists for everything. In the quote above the amount of experience is being attached to the actual person you will be dealing with - i.e. class="infoquote "whilst everybody understands the importance of making a Will, st...


Khan Law: That's a ridiculously simplistic example, but it hopefully conveys the general point. So Khan Law clearly stating the actual award is therefore quite a rarity and should not be overlooked. class="infoquote "Raees was awarded the 'Rising Star in Law Award' at the pr...


JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: More and more people are becoming aware of just how much of a difference a specialist can make to a case. As a (ridiculously basic) example - it would obviously be better to use an expert lawyer who takes 25% of a hard won £5000 compensation win, than to use a less e...

The Legal Practice Ltd: Also be aware that if a firm has more than one office there may be separate reviews for each. You can end up with a 1-year-qualified lawyer from a 300-year-old brand name the same as you can end up with a 40-year-experienced lawyer from a 2-year-old firm. Reading negative re...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: If you flick through the data for Jacob's, you'll see they have solicitors from almost every decade over the last four of them. For example: class="infoquote "Established in 2013, Jacobs Law Solicitors specialise in advising and supporting individuals, small companie...


HooperHyde: That's very clear and easy to understand. But these days with the number of self employed people rising exponentially - we've also seen a huge rise in people wanting a specialist business legal advisor that can deal with small businesses effectively. Motoring Offences and D...


Hill House Chambers: On some occasions this can mean you're paying two firms for the job one could do. they are qualified to ... As Hill House Chambers puts it: class="infoquote "The Direct Access (or Public Access) scheme allows members of the public to instruct an authorised barrister di...


Hawkridge & Company: For any legal matter there are often a range of options such as a general practice firm, a specialist provider, a direct access barrister, or even sometimes a non-law-firm solution such as for bankruptcy, wills, or debt collection. A good range of seasoned experience along...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: As that information isn't readily available in Scotland (yet) we have to do a bit more digging. A quote from one article says: class="infoquote "The deal will see Gildeas expand its total workforce by 13 to 77 and represents a landmark first acquisition for the firm, w...


Frazer Coogans Ltd: If you look at the last quoted positive review above you'll see that there were problems with the house sale but the client did not lay all their frustrations on their solicitor. class="infoquote "Norman Geddes has been in practice since 1976" "Anoop Christi...


Fair Result Ltd: This includes direct access barristers, non-legal solutions, and mediation service providers. class="infoquote "It reduces the stress and emotion, speeds up the process and above all, it reduces costs."< div> At this point we started searching around for customer ...


Education Law Service Ltd: But if you make sure to have the 'Ltd' part at the end of the name when searching, you should get the correct firm to pop up. The first quote in this article was from the Education Law Service Ltd's website. It's just that people are much more likely to jump online to ...


Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: That's not something we are so keen on. Make sure to read comments when it comes to law firms though, not just flick through star ratings. class="infoquote "We take the time to get to know our clients, work in partnership with them and are always striving for the best...


DV Solicitors: However both www.deovolente.com and www.deovolente.co.uk are owned by other firms. For example in tax HMRC matters you may save a lot of time and money by using an accountant rather than a law firm if your type of case allows such. class="infoquote "always res...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: There are so many people living with severe issues in their homes out of either fear of their landlord or an inability to get their landlord to do anything. class="infoquote "Depending on the solicitor we refer you to, the No Win, No Fee success fee is 25%-50%+VAT."< ...


David Stinson & Co: class="infoquote "David Stinson & Co specialise in personal injury claims for clients across the Kent area."< div> Whilst many case types might be listed on any personal injury firm's website such as slips trips, workplace injuries, car accidents, etc. But you ne...


Cooks Solicitors: Newcastle RTB team where [sic] a nightmare to deal with and he managed them so well." "always kept me updated on what was going on and explained things" "i used nigel cook recentley [sic] ... in a personal injury claim, professional and a top notch guy" "My so...


CEL Solicitors: Certainly CEL Solicitors have a wide range of positive reviews : class="infoquote "they really did carry out what they intended to and I am very happing with what was achieved" "Now have a date for the repairs to be done and a nice little bit of compensation as a...


Catteralls Solicitors: class="infoquote "Catteralls Solicitors have been based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire for over 100 years."< div> Sadly many law firms use more marketing jargon on their websites rather than clear information about what makes them different. For example, one firm w...


QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: That's quite something unique to see. It doesn't stop there though. It's meant to convey 'quality' services with minimum levels expected amongst all members such as flexible hours for appointments, free initial consultations , and so on. class="infoquote "Qualit...


Brown and Co Solicitors: Here are some of the resources we use that you might not have known about or things to watch for you might not have thought about. A quick note on navigation due to the number of firms out there with 'brown' in the name. no other firm is going to say they are 'inexpe...


Bridge McFarland LLP: There are many resources available to you though and many things you might not have considered when checking a legal professional's website. The negative ones all seemed to relate to delays in a house purchase. 8 staff x 5 years experience = 40). They state alternative...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: class="infoquote "For us, our clients are not just another case number or file"< div> Speaking of clients, the most common thing people check on when researching services they might use online is previous client reviews. We have always encouraged firms to have suc...


BLZ Solicitors: The firm's branding is BLZ Solicitors and they come up for searches for that name no problem. You would think that these days with phone, email, and video chat - especially since the COVID pandemic - that any law firm could spare even just 15 minutes to discuss your case to ...


Bilkus & Boyle: People are https: www.theguardian.com money 2021 jan 02 homebuyers-scams-stamp-duty-holiday-" handing millions of pounds over to fraudsters< a> simply because they thought the email telling them to suddenly pay their huge deposit into a totally different bank account - we...


Bell Lax Solicitors: For all we know the poor rating is for something ridiculous or not even for the correct firm. This can be very confusing, but 9 times out of 10 the firm is well within it's rights to use the word. There were several other things about Bell Lax Solicitors we saw as positive o...


Beers LLP: But we didn't see such a solicitor named as working at this firm. This is understandable because seeing any negative reviews can often reveal a lot about a firm . This article is therefore going to sound quite 'pro' their firm , making it look almost like something they wr...


Aspire Licensing: But this shouldn't pose a huge amount of risk anyway due to the area of law they deal in. In fact, an experienced accountant could cost much less yet be far more effective . Certainly we can't think of one that's more niche off-hand, but we've been doing this for over...


Argue & Co Legal: There isn't even a stand alone page of information for most Scottish law firms on the Law Society site. They make a further point about this on the Argue & Co website: class="infoquote "Allan's vision for Argue & Co Legal is to establish a small firm, with small r...


Antony Hodari Solicitors: So you should get the correct firm popping up on most expected searches. Antony Hodari's claims in the snippet above were taken from their front page and are much more believable and can be checked on too. class="infoquote "We specialise in acting for tenants where th...


ABS Lawyers Ltd: There should therefore be no confusion there, but currently most of the common error typo variations we would expect such as www.abslaw.co.uk, www.abslawyer.co.uk, or www.abssolicitors.co.uk .com are not owned by anyone. Sometimes based on just a couple of official looki...
