White Collar Legal: It's "more than" the Citizen's Advice Bureau. oh!" about: class="infoquote "White Collar Qualified Paralegal & Administration Services. Some firms definitely try too hard to be trendy whilst others almost regress, focusing on their 200+ year history and their founder...


The Solicitors Advocates & Barristers Inc: Luckily though, with law firms there are sometimes independent ways to check up on such things. They also weren't averse to listing some of the more common fees actually on their site. A bold move for sure. So what are people saying on the public forums? class="infoq...


Thorpe Wilson Solicitors: For example, the phrase 'No Win, No Fee' only means that there are no costs if your case loses. The firm's website is https secure for submitting your details via the online form. As mentioned earlier, there are plenty of independent review boards to check such as Go...


The Johnson Partnership: However, with some firms the solicitor you choose will not always be the person that represents you in court should the matter go to trial. The biggest problem we had on this occasion was that the information was not always clear, or even about the correct firm. If you ski...


The Injury Solicitor Ltd: Such as: class="infoquote "We use the latest technology to ensure that you are able to track the progress of your claim 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." < div> As well as details of their charitable aims including planting a tree for every case and donating part of...


Taborns Legal Business: We're just at a different point in the chain. For example, this could be a requirement for a specialist member of the UK Bar (Barrister), premium investigatory services, litigation funding or eDiscovery."< div> However the gist of it is probably exactly how the name mak...


Simons Rodkin Solicitors LLP: We will consider fixed fees and for legal dispute work No Win No Fee (or partial no win no fee) arrangements in appropriate situations."< div> Thankfully it's becoming increasingly common for firms to be more open about their fees up front. This mix of seasoned, tempere...


Serious Law LLP: But many people (quite a large percentage according to our poll last year) don't trust them nearly as much as those on third party review sites such as Google, Yell, Trustpilot, etc. So we know to take un-explained negative ratings with a pinch of salt. Especially if you sea...


SBW Law Ltd: The first means there are no fees up front and none if your case loses. But there are some statements which may say more than you think. At this office the range of experience goes from Alasdair Brown who qualified in 1991 right up to Christopher Lackner who qualified in 201...


RSR Law Ltd: Confused? Well, take this example. ;) class="infoquote "RSR Law Ltd's focus is on getting you, our client, the best possible outcome for your case in a timely and stress free manor [sic]."< div>. Timescale. When choosing firms for us to recommend potential clients to, ...


Robin Somerville Direct Access Barrister: None of the inputs are marked as to whether they are *required information or not. Also Robin does not handle any matters that are currently a major target for fraudsters such as conveyancing (where scammers convince people to play their deposits into false bank accoun...


Reid Black Solicitors: Northern Ireland, like much of here in the celtic-relative land of Scotland, has a couple of large population centres with most others spread out about. Millions of pounds a year https: www.irishnews.com news northernirelandnews 2018 10 08 news thousands-of-pounds-stolen-i...


Redwood Collections Ltd: I say oddly because quite often it is the debtors that leave reviews on a debt collection firm and they are obviously bias in the opposite directly. So if you do see negative reviews of any debt collection company - pay attention to whether they just happen to be the person ...


RD Costings: class="infoquote "RD Costings have the experience and knowledge to secure a payment in circumstances where an individual application would not necessarily be successful."< div>. Sadly, thousands of people are handing over their bank details https: www.telegraph.co.uk...


Penn Chambers Solicitors: We noticed though, that some of the reviews on the third party boards are actually the ones used on the Penn Chambers' website: class="infoquote "Sound advice and the professional approach to my divorce ensured I came through it with the results I was entitled to" ...


OTS Solicitors Ltd: We've often discussed the pros and cons of using a general high street style law practice that covers a wide range of matters versus those that specialise in a single niche. So stars don't always reflect real position in the minds of previous clients. OTS Solicitors state be...


OJ Solicitors Ltd: For example we always ensure a good selection of solicitors, barristers, debt collection agents, accountants, paralegals and more because your particular case may be best served by one rather than the other. This is something we've said repeatedly elsewhere. However you...


Murray Hay Solicitors: It's been a long time since I've seen a solicitor strike a balance between professional visuals, enough but not too much content, and a friendly feel that doesn't require photos of everyone in a pub. We'll come back to the content later, but first some background: ...


MTA Personal Injury Solicitors LLP: For example if all five of your local solicitor's offices have great reviews and well worded sales pitches on their website - you can check the background of the solicitors within each practice to see who may have the most experience. class="infoquote "If you or a lov...


MGBe Legal: This includes Skilled Workers, Global Talent, Citizenship, Employers and Business Immigration, Family and Private Life applications, Appeals, Asylum and Human Rights, Deportation and Detention. But until you've actually used the firm, how can you judge whether this is going ...


Meresbrook Pollard Solicitors: We've done work for hundreds of them, are regularly in contact with hundreds more, and are connected to thousands more across social media. If you've come to 1to1Legal before to read informational reviews about firms, this one is going to have a couple of firsts. However, it...


McEwan Fraser Legal: The only common issue we've seen in the search stats is the mis-spelling of 'mckewan' rather than 'mcewan'. Firms that deal in divorce or bankruptcy tend not to have many public reviews about how things went. The official site is www.mcewanfraserlegal.co.uk and currently www...


Alexander JLO Solicitors: I'm willing to bet AJLO's actual client wasn't so upset with them doing that. What should have been a simple transaction with no chain took over six months to complete ..." < div> It goes on for quite a bit after that. Barely anyone qualifies for it these days anyway. Th...


Linkilaw Solicitors: The new web address is www.linkilawsolicitors.com with www.linkilawsolicitors.co.uk redirecting you there. Never discuss your bank details with someone that calls you up. But with a new branding setup, web address change, and expansion into more areas of corporate law -...

NV Legal Ltd: There are quite a few independent forums such as Google, Trustpilot, Yelp, Yell.com and so on which can often provide far more insight into how a firm treats it's clients than the testimonials each might strategically place on their own website. NV Legal are with The Law Soc...


Levins Solicitors: Exactly what most people would like to have in a firm handling their case. So how do Levins Solicitors stack up on such boards? class="infoquote "professionalism and experience were of great comfort" "Without them by my side ... We've worked with Levins Solicitor...

Aconveyancing Ltd: You may very well get a forty year qualified solicitor at a 2 year old firm. class="infoquote "We help our clients to buy and sell property with ease, managing the legal process from start to finish."< div> Conveyancing firms are hit the hardest by online review ...


Leech & Co: Apparently there are over 2000+ such locations across the UK so I imagine the majority of solicitors dealing with Wills, Court of Protection and Power of Attorney matters are aware of them. Whilst it's certainly on-topic with their particular client focus - I imagine it's so...


Lawcomm Solicitors: Neil Woolgar qualified back in 1982, David Roper in 1991, and Kelly Pragnell in 2010. We've seen a firm stating a 150 year history yet their staff list contained no solicitor with more than a decade's worth of experience. My solicitor Sophie has been so helpful." "Very ...


Kudos Legal Ltd: The website www.kudoslegalservices.co.uk popped up some searches we tried but that is for the alternative firm we mentioned before. A lot of staff being mentioned by name in the reviews too. Not just legal services. For the Glasgow office you can check The Law Society of Sc...


Kings View Chambers: She did actually work as a nurse within the NHS for some years before being called to the Bar in 2007. We always run a firm's website through several devices and browsers to check. Prior to practice at the Bar he worked in a criminal defence firm covering difficult cas...


Kings Court Trust Ltd: The Guardian newspaper lists KTC as one of their https: www.theguardian.com money 2009 apr 18 probate-writing-a-will" Probate Best Buys< a>, stating: class="infoquote "Instead of handing the work to solicitors, who can charge by the hour leading to a potentially ope...


Joanna Connolly Solicitors: Whilst they don't say much about free initial consultations, the website does mention the Conditional Fee Arrangements (CFA's) I talked about before, but - again unusually - they also offer a Pay As You Go service. I recommend a phone call to confirm the ins and outs of that...


Jarmans Solicitors Ltd: However at that time everyone else involved such as insurers, healthcare professionals, letting agents, etc. If a firm has only a couple of these, it might feel as though you don't know enough to decide. Jarmans Solicitors have everything we usually reference when deta...


IWC Probate & Will Services: If you read our last article, it was about a firm with a history back to 1979 yet had a grand total of three reviews across the entire web. Why is that important? The reason they have so many reviews is probably because they link to review groups from their own websit...


Ian Mallon Solicitors: There could be some common spelling errors such as 'Malon' or people looking up other variations such as ianmallonsolicitors.com - but it's always a good idea to bookmark any site you plan on coming back to anyway. Sadly, the focus seems to be more on the person's favourite ...


R James Hutcheon Solicitors: So what do we like and dislike about R James Hutcheon Solicitors. For example if a site says 'with 40 years experience within the firm' or something like '40 years of combined experience' - they don't mean that one of the staff has at least 40 years experience under the...


Howe + Co Solicitors: Certainly the kind of range you'd like to see at any law practice. Hopefully we can point you in the direction of some universal ways to get to know a firm better before making your call. class="infoquote "We act on our client's instructions, always putting our client...


HJA Solicitors: It also mentions the little fact that Cherie Blair opened their new offices in 1997 - invited to as she had worked at the firm early in her career. For example, solicitors typically don't get a lot of online reviews in the same way local shops or online service provide...


Helix Law Ltd: Here are some snippets from Helix Law's site. Typically if there are grammatical errors and spelling mistakes - the reviews have been sourced from the latter. Although we call review sites independent, that doesn't mean they can't have issues with fakery. A quality, car...


Hampson Hughes Solicitors: So for security's sake it's probably a good idea to bookmark the correct site once you're on it . So do we recommend Hampson Hughes? class="infoquote "Our objective is to ensure we recover the maximum amount of personal injury compensation you deserve."< div> C...


GloverPriest Solicitors: The website is concise with everything in it's place. But still, it's an indication of a firm that puts communication and keeping people in the loop as a priority . A note on navigation as we're dealing with property matters. If you want to know more about any p...


Frank Rogers Law Ltd: Whilst Frank Rogers does state he knows those loopholes, that is absolutely not how most cases are 'won' . But you never know what fraudsters will think of next. . class="infoquote "I have represented clients facing prosecution for driving offences throughout England...


Fieldfisher LLP: However these are sufficiently in the past to avoid anyone still mixing them up. The main site we link to above is www.fieldfisher.com with www.fieldfisher.co.uk redirecting you there. But Fieldfisher actually list their achievements with links including Legal Business Awa...


Edward Hands & Lewis Solicitors: It works too: class="infoquote "We will avoid legal jargon where possible and will communicate with you in plain English, taking the time to explain any legal terms to you We will be honest and open with you about our fees at all times during your client journey We...


Hammond Trotter Solicitors: The longer a motor offence runs on for, the less options become available. Certainly, the cost of the fine and the increase in your insurance from speeding points may work out to be considerably less than the cost of defending yourself. The usual suspects such as Yellow Page...


Driscoll Kingston: Before we get into any more pointers though, what do Driscoll Kingston say about themselves? class="infoquote "Driscoll Kingston Solicitors' mission was to create a fresh, modern and dynamic law firm with a focus on client care and access to justice for all."< div> ...


DFA Law LLP: So be careful, and we even recommend never giving bank details to someone that rings you. A tough thing to admit with us being a Scottish company, so it must be true. So do the independent review boards match up? class="infoquote "Professional, efficient and easy to de...


Davey Law: We're good at listening - and good at finding common sense, practical solutions for you." < font> For family law, they can help with cohabitation, divorce, child support, pre nuptial agreements, abuse, etc. For example, as you'll no doubt have noticed - the individual s...


CSL Law Ltd: Of course CSL cover a niche case range of Divorce, Dispute Resolution, and Employment Law so the site shouldn't be large anyway. That's not unusual for Google, but in this instance it made researching difficult and it became apparent that unless people actually dug into some...


CFG Law: We love case studies and a recent poll showed that the public love them too. To date, everyone seems very impressed with CFG on their own merits and have not requested further opinions from us. So, does that philosophical or sociological disagreement give me pause in ...


Briffa Legal Ltd: But the firm's enthusiasm unashamedly spills out of their website anyway. We love case studies in the same way teenagers love YouTube. If you don't know how passionate you have to be about a subject to keep a real blog going - just try it. Where does this love of all ...


Balfour+Manson LLP: They want a firm that sounds established, professional, and wig-wearing ... Ian's father, Francis, joined as a partner in 1922. A quick note on navigation though. Just for the sake of clarity - I'll admit to having actually engaged the services of two of the solicitors...


AWH Solicitors: The official company name is AHW Legal Ltd which is what shows on the Companies House records and The Law Society pages we linked to above. But we've been working with law firms for over 20 years now and can confidently say that any official Lexcel, Law Society or Legal 5...


Avery Walters Solicitors: every member of the Avery Walters team is a specialist in their chosen field and has either worked for National Law firms or has been in their sector for many years and are indeed experts in their field"< div> Statements such as these for example can be checked through ...


Auto Logistic Solutions Ltd: For example, we still offer people a solicitor to handle their case even though a direct access barrister is likely to be cheaper. With everything so computerised these days and information being shared across all platforms and industries however, it may be that even small a...


APS Legal & Associates: Typically they will state "ABC Wills is run by ABC Solicitors Ltd and regulated by the SRA No.000001" or something similar. class="infoquote "In this unregulated environment, we have aligned ourselves with the Institute of Professional Will Writers (IPW)."< div> . The...


Apprise Legal Services: On those we still found very positive comments: class="infoquote "Excellent fast and efficient service" "... No pressure." "A thorough and caring aproach. A quick note on navigation with a triple barrelled company name. This seems to be be completely d...


Allsop Durn Solicitors: For example, Allsop Durn have a good chunk of a page talking about their fees. The one we always recommend is local Law Societies. We geniunely, 100%, not-making-it-up had a solicitor at one firm say to us "The Internet? No, we don't do that." Naturally, we have not rec...


Aina Khan Law Ltd: Again, www.ainakhan.co.uk was not in use. Be aware that www.ainakhanlaw.co.uk is currently not in use. So maybe not a lot of people feel the urge to go online and share their feelings. As the name is quite unique there shouldn't really be problems like you get with some...


5 Essex Court: https: www.legal500.com firms 9330-chambers-of-jason-beer-qc 9330-london-england " The Legal 500< a> page about them also uses similar wording in it's praise: class="infoquote "An excellent set with a stellar reputation, 5 Essex Court consistently appears in high-pr...


33Legal Ltd: However, the website states they have 20 years of experience in various personal injury matters. We've actually written articles on how more firms should be connected with good therapy centres and how treatment should be a bigger part of settlements rather than just money ...
