Youngs Solicitors: Each individual office they manage has kept a local, recognisable name with their own website and case range. At the time of writing there were a few things on their website we thought could be better for clients. The number of case types it covers is almost as small as the ...


Woodstock Legal Services: 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. Commentaries from other businesses willing to stamp their approval have more weight in our opinion. Woodstock also have...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: Reading between the lines, it's probably safe to assume they have confidence in their expertise and experience to handle such tasks. class="infoquote "At ULA Solicitors, we strive to represent our clients with the highest standards and exceptional determination. We sp...


Trust Inheritance Ltd: 'trust' and 'inheritance'. For example Gillian Grinyer having qualified in 1980, Ekta Porter qualifying in 2010, right up to incredibly newbie Abraam Azir qualifying in 2021. Clearly some mix up with company names in the area. But even with the potential search issues and ot...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: Rhod Gilbert's https: www.youtube.com watch?v=drKC3Zd3SqM" award winning mince pie rant< a> very much relates to how we feel on the subject. Thanks to the creation of the internet and the resulting modern day marketing - such firms can reach the audience they WANT to se...


The Legal Practice Ltd: The most common to make people not want to use a law firm is if there are plenty of negative reviews about their case solicitor never being contactable. That's because the legal industry is currently plagued by fraudsters trying to scam house buyers out of their deposit mone...


Stephanie Heijdra: Barristers are setup quite differently to regular law offices in that there typically aren't official physical law offices to go back and forth to. As you may have gathered from the network setup and other articles across our site, our goal is not just to provide a directory...


Taylor Price Solicitors: We've seen them get one star ratings from people who are angry at a criminal defence firm refusing to take their divorce case. Watch out for firms that claim ancient establishment dates such as 'founded in 1781'. One of the solicitors https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk pe...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: That's a considerable range of experience between them but it should also be a good mix of seasoned wise heads alongside fresh eager ideas. We have over 200 firms in our database at the moment and only 22 of them will help with Legal Aid. On this occasion though all the h...


Summerfield Browne Solicitors: We've written many articles on what to look for in a law firm to make sure you get legal advice from the best match to your needs. Most firms will say they are modern with a unique setup. class="infoquote "We are a modern and progressive law firm, and operate a new le...

Thaxted Legal Ltd: But if you see a firm of 1 or 2 solicitors stating they handle every case type you can think of from Personal Injury to Family Law, Criminal Law and Immigration as well - chances are they are probably not able to keep themselves as well informed or up to date as a specialis...


Stowe Family Law: 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. Another quick note on nav...


Stenfield Solicitors: We ran a poll a few years ago which came back in the single digits for people that actually trusted the testimonial pages of company websites. A last word from the firm's site: class="infoquote "98% of clients said they were happy with the result we achieved for them"<...


Springle & Co Solicitors: Either national or local. On top of that, families are much further away from the stereotypical husband wife 2.6 children arrangement of old. Law firms typically receive less reviews than other services such as restaurants or garages. Springle and Company have a page on thei...


Smith and Graham Solicitors: But it actually contains two of the main things we think you should look at when picking a firm. The best resource we've found is The Law Society of England & Wales website which is packed with useful details such as contact details, all office addresses, practice...


Simper Law Ltd: If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 594891 simper-law-limited" check out the page< a> for any firm registered with them you'll be shown alternate contact details, other office locations, languages spoken, and more. But it goes without saying that you can end...


The Search Bureau: But it's surely a fair one. The lack of easily available reviews shouldn't be viewed negatively in these cases. After more than twenty years of working in the legal industry, we've built up quite a network of connections, followers, and business partners. This includes...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: litigation) follow the same sorts of procedures and have similar issues to contend with. So if a legal service provider has few or even zero reviews, don't take it as a negative sign . Please be aware though that reviews for law firms are very different to reviews for thing...


Richmond Legal Ltd: Whilst people may be quite happy to jump online and discuss their new toaster, a local restaurant, or even a house sale - they are less likely to rush and inform everyone about how their bankruptcy, divorce, child custody or contentious probate case is going. One good w...


Rose Fendlen Law: Just always make sure you know exactly which site you are on, which email addresses you are responding to, and we recommend putting full name displays in your phone contact list as well. So whilst an individual solicitor saying they are a specialist in Family Law, Wills, Inj...


Pump Court Chambers: Always make sure you are on the correct website and never discuss payments or bank details via email. Statements like the one above are displayed on practically every legal firm's website. That brings us to a quick note on what a 'chambers' actually is compared to so...


Penerley Lawyers: (We once had a negative comment because we helped lawyers and the person hated lawyers.) They do have some testimonials on their website: class="infoquote "This is a firm that we can truly rely on." "able to quickly understand the issues at hand and provide c...


Pacific Law: Even one extra Saturday a month is actually more rare than you think, so give a firm credit for that if it's available. You are just as likely to get a one year qualified solicitor from an ancient brand as you are to get a forty year experienced lawyer that joined a new le...


OneLaw Chambers: A https: www.legal500.com how-it-works " list of the qualities and standards< a> each firm on the Legal 500 list has to meet as a bare minimum is also available. It also provides the qualification dates and specialties of each legal professional within a firm. That's unde...


My Law Matters: the one word capitalised and heavily exclamated 'AVOID!!' hysterics) - if there is a general complaint theme that can shed some light on any flaw's with the company in question, that can be very helpful. Sometimes they end up pushing the original name into the background in ...


MJV & Co Solicitors Ltd: If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 595126 mjv-co-solicitors-ltd" check out the page< a> for this firm you'll be able to see any alternative business names they use, their specialist areas of law, alternative contact details, and the qualification dates of e...


Milners Solicitors: How can you tell the difference though? class="infoquote "When you need legal expertise, you’ll find us plain talking and focussed on finding the right solution for you. If you saw someone posting a negative review about Pizza Hut saying 'they wouldn't sell me a Big ...


Michael Leighton Jones: What can you use? class="infoquote "With offices in Bargoed and Tredomen, Ystrad Mynach, near Caerphilly in South Wales, the firm has over 40 years experience in the legal sector"< div> One thing people are often wary of are boasts about various years of experie...


Mckie Legal: This is usually marked very clearly and carefully on each firm's website of course. A quick note on navigation considering the related names as we even saw three different addresses for the firm popping up. If you scroll to the bottom of the page you'll usually see a s...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: But www.mason&bullock.co.uk can't exist because you're not allowed ampersands in web addresses. Scammers are getting millions from people every year by pretending to be the person's solicitor. There always are. The situation was at least slightly covered in https: www.da...


Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: For many years now https: monzo.com blog we-sent-our-house-deposit-to-a-fraudster-who-posed-as-our-lawyer" the property industry has been the target< a> of massive amounts of fraud due to the huge amounts of money being passed around in deposits mortgages. and recom...


Lindsays Solicitors: Lindsays are under The Law Society of Scotland, but we're sad to say the Scottish site is far outdone by English Welsh version. So in true internet-style, those people came onto the review boards to bad-mouth the firm assigned to sell the property. But I'm guessing most peop...


Lefevres Law: You can end up hiring a 40-year-guru lawyer from a law practice that set up 6 months ago. A quick note on navigation too. For example, Lefevres are listed in the Legal Aid board database. That can make them sound a little more formal: class="infoquote "the b...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: They provide alternative trading names for each legal practice, case types handled, other office locations, languages spoken, and most usefully - the qualification dates of each solicitor registered with them. Thanks to creation of the internet, law firms are able to s...


Khan Law: So, yes. Despite the range of other 'Khan' law firms, this firm focuses on Personal Injury which doesn't have as much risk as things such as Property matters. That's a ridiculously simplistic example, but it hopefully conveys the general point. It may therefore be a g...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: However Jacobs has already provided this information on the website. You can get a 40-year-expert lawyer at a 1-year-old newly set up brand where the paint on the walls is still wet. Entering the full firm name plus location is usually necessary to make sure you see comm...


HooperHyde: They are not related companies. HooperHyde obviously stood out to us enough for them to become included on our site. The practice of having different brandings for various offices or case types within a firm became even more popular just over a decade ago due to...


Hill House Chambers: they are qualified to ... Biggest things to watch for are emails about money, payments, or bank details as that should never happen . We ran a poll a few years back and the number of people that trusted company provided customer testimonials wasn't even in the double digits...


Hawkridge & Company: class="infoquote "With highly trained experts on hand to advise on your particular case, you will always receive a fully informed, clear and professional service whatever your circumstances."< div> Again, all law firms will claim to have staff with the necessary ...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: The worst comment in our opinion though, was a 3 star review for the company because the client believed the firm's offices were Hard to find" . Of course many firms post testimonials themselves on their site. So if you see reviews relating to such, it's not an error by th...


Frazer Coogans Ltd: We would imagine that having a mix of ages, genders, and experience levels is an enviable position for any company that deals with direct client services. class="infoquote "Frazer Coogans Solicitors was originally established in Ayr in 1985."< div> If you've read ...


Fair Result Ltd: We did ask around our own office if anyone might want to get a divorce in order to test out this firm's claims. One last excerpt from the firm's site that stood out to us: class="infoquote "Our workloads are managed to ensure we never have more than six live cas...


Education Law Service Ltd: In the past this usually only applied to cases that would be run on a no win, no fee basis anyway such as Personal Injury matters. It was still very positive : class="infoquote "excellent on the day ... You never know what scam will be next though so always make ...


Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: Legal issues are very personal. We obviously read through dozens of law firm's websites every day and the similarties between the content and the claims each make to set themselves apart as 'unique' can often end up blurring for us. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org....


DV Solicitors: However these ancient establishment date claims are mostly just marketing. Such as: class="infoquote "have gone beyond and above in all areas of our transaction" "an immense pleasure to acquire your proficient services" "carried out all the required res...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: DisrepairClaim.co.uk specialising in this particular area of law therefore means we're very happy to have them on board . Many people assume that every litigation firm or compensation claim advertising lawyer will take on such cases - but they simply don't. Unless the ...


David Stinson & Co: A lawyer who is expert in one can usually handle any of the others just as well. For David Stinsons and Co they are all positive and look genuine . Often you will be asked to sign an 'After The Event' insurance document which insures the against losing. Be aware that ampers...


Cooks Solicitors: On the whole they are very positive but there were some negative comments as well. The experience levels of the solicitor running your case is the most crucial number out of the two. So make sure to read the reasons for any negative rating that has been left. People

CEL Solicitors: That's because legal professionals and law firms are not quite the same as your local restaurant, supermarket, or hairdresser. These types of claims are sometimes short-lived or have government mandated dates by which point no more claims are allowed such as the banking PPI ...


Catteralls Solicitors: We did see the name 'Catterall Pell & Moxon' popping up, a branding that no longer operates. In our opinion, long term existence of a firm's brand is not nearly as important as the experience and expertise of the individual solicitor you are going to work with. For ex...


QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: A huge mix of seasoned gurus along side fresh legs and ideas. To be on the safe side though, make sure to bookmark the current site in case you want to come back. It's actually not even a sort of franchise either like people who open their own McDonalds restaurant. ...


Brown and Co Solicitors: Plus dozens of review pages both monitored and unmonitored. 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 a...


Bridge McFarland LLP: 8 staff x 5 years experience = 40). Take this example: class="infoquote "Bridge McFarland LLP is a leading regional law firm that holds an exceptional local, national and international reputation"< div> It sounds good, but what does it mean? What are they 'leadi...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: For example, you would never see a bad review for Pizza Hut saying 'they wouldn't sell me a hamburger! ridiculous!!'. The jack-of-all-trades situation. That's just ... well ... We've been reviewing law firms for over twenty years and have never seen a firm with such a wide ...


BLZ Solicitors: Usually this does not affect compensation claims. But you never know what they'll think of next. 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 ...


Bilkus & Boyle: You may also find that many of the lowest ratings often have nothing to do with the firm's services. we are proud to serve the community and clients all over Scotland, UK and abroad"< div> These days there are dozens of review forums online such as Google Reviews,...


Bell Lax Solicitors: In fact for most of them no comments were left at all - just a low star rating which we always think is just plain unhelpful. We would just always recommend that you read actual comments rather than taking notice of average star ratings. The second is about how much exper...

JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: This is often referred to as a 'conditional fee' arrangement and will typically be around 25% of your settlement. But that also means the quote about '30 years' on the firm's website most likely relates to how long the firm's name has been running. For example, if you someti...


Beers LLP: So how can you tell if a firm has a good amount of experience if the founding dates are not a good point of reference? Luckily in England & Wales the Law Society has an excellent website with loads of good user-side data available. A lot of comments about friendliness...


Argue & Co Legal: We promise to make the process as easy and efficient as we possibly can for you."< div> It's true that even with the huge range of options available to people these days such as Direct Access barristers or no win no fee arrangements (plus a host of television adverts ov...
