Youngs Solicitors: At the time we checked, they were clickable images rather than live counters - so were slightly off the actual average ratings on each. class="infoquote "updated regularly every step of the way" "Made problems go away" "nothing seemed to much trouble" "t...
Woodstock Legal Services: So, do the independent review boards reflect this positivity? class="infoquote "our chain was fairly complicated but Kerry was highly knowledgeable" "very professional, yet friendly" "so helpful during entire process, and went out of her way to make everything a...
ULA Solicitors Ltd: For example, the biggest scam going around the UK just now is when fraudsters email clients saying the bank details for their house deposit have changed. The official site we link to above is www.ulasolicitors.com with www.ulasolicitors.co.uk not currently redirecting you th...
Trust Inheritance Ltd: There is a whole section https: trustinheritance.toolboxx.co.uk #bereavement" offering various products< a> to tailor towards what you might need if you're looking to handle the matter by yourself as much as possible. They also offer a fully online service called a DIY Pr...
Trojan Solicitors Ltd: Whilst we normally haven't used the firms we write about to handle a case for us (obviously, as we review hundreds of law firms) we will have at least interacted and or worked with some of the staff. These days there's a huge number of firms who have chosen to focus on ...
Stephanie Heijdra: They also will be far more specialised in certain areas of law because they are more likely to have to represent you in court over the matter. As a client who needs legal advice or representation in court, this could save you money in legal fees."< div> That's a snip...
Thaxted Legal Ltd: That's always something to watch out for especially with multi-office firms or firms with non-unique names. We don't often give out specific advice in these articles. Immigration is an area of law like Divorce and Motor Offences where people really do want an expert. T...
Smith and Graham Solicitors: Sadly establishment dates are one of those marketing things companies with less-than-good-intentions misuse all the time.
Smith and Graham have 'Team' pages with profiles of their staff including experience and areas of practice which is great and something we always ...
Taylor Price Solicitors:
If you typically just look at star ratings when researching companies online, it's something you shouldn't do when it comes to law firms.
If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 596831 taylor-price-legal-limited" check out the info page< a> for any fir...
Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd:
There were quite a few negative complaints about the company on the Google review pages. So to check up on the information on your local office, just click the appropriate office link and select 'in this office'. Also be aware that ampersands cannot be in web addresses ...
Summerfield Browne Solicitors: However if you actually read through the comments you see one reviewer stating "I have provided them with amazing pension advice" which seems like an advert for their own company plus several one star reviews within the space of a week with no explanation attached. A risk h...
Stowe Family Law: The reviews are mainly positive from what we saw with several comments about fair pricing and time effort put in. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 543705 stowe-family-law-llp" check out their pages< a> you can see office addresses, contact details, langua...
Stenfield Solicitors: However one was by a third party who's own solicitor lost against Stenfield, and the other didn't leave any helpful comments about what was wrong. Any mentions of 'Stenfield Limited' relate to the same company. A real mix of ages, genders, experience, and expertise that you ...
Springle & Co Solicitors: We have written on a wide range of multi-practice firms over the years. Another phrase concept we seem to have imported from the US. But it may be an idea to seek out a free consulation with a fully qualified legal professional before deciding which way to go. Solicitors are...
Simper Law Ltd:
class="infoquote "Victoria is the perfect Solicitor and will fight your corner every step of the way"
"Victoria was able to take the emotion out of my case and look at it objectively"
"I would like to thank Kim for her patience and advice in putting together ...
The Search Bureau: But that's the case for most related service providers such as this conveyancing searches company or others such as law costs drafting firms.
If you've read some of our other articles where we research solicitors, barristers and law practices across the UK - you'll prob...
Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: The one review we did see:
class="infoquote "provided a really helpful and professional service to help me make a claim"< div>
was obviously very positive . there are plenty of other firms using those two initials. Yes, if the firm is registered with a law societ...
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. It's also become more of a pain to organise. So for Richmond Legal to cover both these quite specialist areas together - is actuall...
Rose Fendlen Law: Many firms use the same sales language, offer similar services, make similar promises, and even use similar images on their websites of people looking sternly at pieces of paper or shaking hands smiling. Property matters). This is important because there are many websites ...
Pump Court Chambers: For example when Pump Court write they are 'based in london and focusing on the South and West' - that really stands out to us as a very positive message . Again, https: www.pumpcourtchambers.com legal-service direct-access " Direct Access< a> is not applicable or bene...
Penerley Lawyers:
class="infoquote "At Penerley we are committed to providing the best possible level of service to our clients."< div>.
The quote above is from the website of a Commercial Law specialist called Penerley , based in Islington.
Their site is https secure for...
Pacific Law: This could include breaking away from the typical 9am-5pm Mon-Fri working hours and offering some late night appointments. 0800 numbers should now be free from every mobile service provider in the UK. Never discuss bank details or payments via email. We put you first."<...
OneLaw Chambers:
class="infoquote "ONELAW CHAMBERS and its lawyers provide a specialist and bespoke legal service in Civil and Commercial Litigation, Business Immigration, Personal Immigration, Landlord and Tenant and Probate matters"< div>
That being said, the government has come...
My Law Matters: That can be a huge help because for some reason, law firms are quite obsessed with quoting founding dates. (No, really.)
Whilst there is a negative comment about this firm on https: www.google.com search?q=my+law+matters&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&oq=My+Law+Matters...
Milners Solicitors:
There is further information about staff members http: abstractionit.co.uk milnerslaw solicitor-staff " on the Milner's website< a>. Sometimes with specific questions but then all answers are rolled into one paragraph of a testimonial. We ran a poll last year and on...
Michael Leighton Jones: The official website is the full www.michaelleightonjones.com but at the moment the full site also pops up on www.michaelleightonjones.co.uk as well. Some even use identical images of people in suits smiling and shaking hands. There will always be 'specialist' firms that tar...
Mckie Legal: It's just far less likely that someone will rush online to discuss how they feel about their criminal law case or messy divorce than it is for them to jump online and tell you about the restaurant they just ate at.
class="infoquote "Contact us for a FREE claims assessm...
Mason Bullock Solicitors: One of the solicitors retired in 2018 and the firm had to be restarted. Some people are handing over entire house deposits to fraudsters based solely on an email asking them to change the bank details they pay to. Mason Bullock Solicitors was an unusual situation for us when...
Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: Sadly we've seen many other firms focus more on the social side of things by stating each staff member's pets, hobbies, and even favourite foods. no ...
Obviously we've added Mackenzie Jones Solicitor to our network so we clearly think positive things about them. Even ...
Lindsays Solicitors: By that we mean there are many websites out there set up to look as though they are a legitimate personal injury or conveyancing firm - when in reality they are a front for case resellers. That last sentence was obviously written with a very cynical tone. But I'm guessing mo...
Lefevres Law: Even the most cursory search on the web will show that Lefevres only just became https: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk company SC683368 officers" listed with companies house< a> in 2020.
class="infoquote "At Lefevres we have access to a number of...
KRS Estate Planning Ltd: These days though, it's clear people want specialists for everything. Sadly, most law firms we've seen (and we've been reviewing them for over 20 years now) still do not work weekends.
If you're a thorough background checker (and we're acutely aware that many of you ar...
Khan Law: But most tend not to be as picky about things like personal injury, wills, landlord disputes, employment law, and so on. However, please note that when checking reviews of any firm you absolutely must read the comments rather than relying on star ratings. Sometimes based on ...
JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: Some go really overboard trying to claim ancient founding dates such as 'established in 1771'. We love case studies, but originally thought this was simply because we've been working in the industry for over twenty years.
class="infoquote "request a free consultation f...
The Legal Practice Ltd: So whilst The Law Practice's claim of being established for over 50 years is far more honest and therefore believable than some other law firms - the whole thing is still not a great measure to help distinguish between a firm's suitability for your particular case. Maintai...
Jacobs Law Solicitors:
class="infoquote "Based in the heart of Birmingham’s City Centre, we offer a unique and exciting new approach to our areas of expertise."< div>
If you've already skimmed through dozens of other law firm's sites today, probably 9 times out of 10 you'll have seen th...
HooperHyde: The official site we link to above is www.hooperhyde.com with www.hooperhyde.co.uk not currently redirecting you there. Confirming the experience level of the actual lawyer you'll be dealing with is something most people find most useful. They are not related companies. We t...
Hill House Chambers: Prior to access being available you had to pay a solicitor to hire a barrister to deal with certain court matters.
One of the bigget moves was when the goverment started to allow Direct Access to barristers. Typically solicitors are not authorised to represent clients ...
Hawkridge & Company: It could have been for logo design, which really doesn't help in estimating the quality of their legal services.
Hawkridge & Co on the other hand have big clear logos at the bottom of their page showing Lexcel Accreditation, the Society of Trust & Estate Practitione...
Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: They can also arrange to meet you in their sister firm's Gildeas' offices in either Glasgow or Edinburgh city centres if that's better.. www.fultons-scotland.com does not redirect you and neither of the www.fultons.co.uk or www.fultons.com variants are owned by the company. ...
Frazer Coogans Ltd: The official name of the firm is Frazer Coogans Ltd but the usual variations such as 'frazer coogan's solicitors', 'fraser coogans ltd', 'frazer coogans ayr', etc. One last clipping from the firm's website:
class="infoquote "Free initial consultation"< div>
This ...
Fair Result Ltd: When we searched for 'fair result', 'fair result divorce' and 'fair result leicester' we got back mostly news stories about random high profile celebrity divorce cases. We simply try to offer a sort of business insider view.
Having worked in the legal industry for well ...
Education Law Service Ltd: Some are less obliging offering just 15 minutes over the phone to help decide if it's a case they can handle and quote you for doing the work. But just as a specialist individual Motor Offence barrister will typically charge much less and take far less time (compared to so...
Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: So whilst someone might be very quick to jump online and talk about a pizza they just ordered - they may be more reluctant to discuss how well their dead father's contentious probate went. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 469206 dylan-nair-solicitors-lim...
DV Solicitors: A good mix of seasoned wisdom alongside new fresh blood. The statement about having served clients for seven years though may make them sound quite new compared to the hundreds of law firms boasting founding dates in the 1800s and beyond. Such as:
class="infoquote "ha...
DisrepairClaim.co.uk: There are firms that specialise in a single area of law, such as Criminal Defence. There is a simply huge number of keyword related websites targeting this area of litigation such as www.housingdisrepairhelpline.co.uk, www.housing-disrepair-claims.co.uk, and www.housingdisre...
David Stinson & Co: The most commonly checked are https: www.google.com search?q=David+Stinson+%26+Co&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&oq=David+Stinson+%26+Co&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i22i30l2j0i22i30i457j0i22i30j69i59.840j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x47df347b954543ed:0x83e17f72b53b5edb,1,,," Goo...
Cooks Solicitors: Whilst many firms provide testimonials on their websites, these are not normally given much attention. We agree that it is always better to see both the positive and negative comments. Again though, whilst many solicitors use different trading names to highlight specific cas...
CEL Solicitors: The firm has https: celsolicitors.co.uk case-studies " a dedicated page< a> showcasing a range of various case type examples.
So whilst there are negative reviews about this firm too (and some with what sound like very valid complaints) - there are several comments ...
Catteralls Solicitors:
Thousands of people have lost millions of pounds to these fraudsters.
class="infoquote "Our highly skilled team are specialist solicitors who cover family law, child-care, wills & probate, litigation & disputes, as well as employment law, and many more."< div>

QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: Like those Law Society logos you see stamped across many solicitor websites. 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. www.bur...
Brown and Co Solicitors: They have an actual fees page which is definitely a rarity amongst legal providers as well.
Obviously we have checked out Brown & Co and ended up adding them to our list of firms so we must have had a positive experience . Our poll from a few years back indicated tha...
Bridge McFarland LLP: Always bear these sorts of things in mind. has held the Law Society’s quality standard accreditation mark, Lexcel, since 2008 demonstrating its high standards, excellent client service and cost efficient advice."< div>
This sentence on the Bridge McFarland site is mu...
Branch Austin McCormick LLP: It's always been said to never ask a lady her age, but I hope the female staff of Branch Austin McCormick will forgive us posting their qualification dates in this instance to showcase their firm. Why people fall for that and don't call their solicitor to check before sendin...
BLZ Solicitors: That's not the case though and there are hundreds of firms out there that still charge full rates just to meet with them. One tip though is to make sure the free consultation is with a qualified professional. These four case types are not exactly the easiest or the best payi...
Bilkus & Boyle: We always advise reading actual comments rather than just flicking through ratings though. This could be a national one, county based, or city wide for larger population cities. Or the review stating how all lawyers are crooked that had been copy pasted across a dozen law ...
Bell Lax Solicitors: On the other hand, an individual solicitor who tries to handle a huge range of case types cannot really call themselves a specialist. This can be very confusing, but 9 times out of 10 the firm is well within it's rights to use the word. It all depends on the set up. That's u...
Beers LLP: If you've read through any of our other law firm cover articles, you'll hopefully know that we do our best to write unbiased information. This is understandable because seeing any negative reviews can often reveal a lot about a firm . Obviously alternatives such as www.beer...
Aspire Licensing: a close relationship with all our local responsible authorities ensures any issues or representations received towards our applications can often be resolved through mediation and working in partnership with said responsible authorities."< div>
Usually we point people ...
Argue & Co Legal: We've seen conveyancing firms with over a thousand reviews on a single review site. Litigation issues tend to follow the same pattern though and most Personal Injury firms will cover the majority of types. However it's easy to imagine getting lost in the numbers at a large f...
Antony Hodari Solicitors: But the name is so unique that if you type 'anthony hodari' into a search the correct firm still pops up. The official site we link to above is www.antonyhodari.co.uk but at the moment www.antonyhodari.com doesn't redirect there. We've also seen many disgruntled reviews over...
ABS Lawyers Ltd: However you should notice the 'translated' note next to those.
For example legal matters such as a wills or debt recovery or bankruptcy don't always result in a solicitor as being your best first point of contact. There are other options provided by non-solicitor backed...
