Please check out the new US Law Firm Reviews section on our sister site.


Youngs Solicitors: The majority are very positive. It's the same firm. Sometimes it's as little as having received an official looking email that said the bank details for payment have changed. Practically every law firm that handles property matters has negative reviews about their han...


Woodstock Legal Services: There was also only one similarly named firm of Woodstock Solicitors. In any industry there are obviously those firms that thrive on publicity and who like seeing their logo everywhere. Woodstock also have a range of badges logo across the bottom of each page such as ILEX,...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: Ever since the '90s the government has been stripping away what Legal Aid covers and the amount a solicitor can earn under it's scheme. For example, the biggest scam going around the UK just now is when fraudsters email clients saying the bank details for their house deposit...


Trust Inheritance Ltd: 'trust' and 'inheritance'. It's important to make sure you're looking at the correct information when researching them, and probably a good idea to bookmark the correct site if you plan on coming back to it. They can certainly help. A last word from the firm's website: ...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: There is a firm called 'trojan law ltd' also based in London, however we saw no apparent website for them to confuse matters. 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. Does this make...


The Legal Practice Ltd: Sometimes simply because they received an official-looking email that said the bank details for payment had changed. But let's be honest. But some of the things we'll cover now will hopefully provide a little more insight into the general issues within the legal indust...


Stephanie Heijdra: class="infoquote "conscientious, approachable and methodical in her approach" "She was quick to turn the case around in my favour and the outcome was great" "Gained more than I was expecting" "I felt supported during the delicate situation I am experiencin...


Taylor Price Solicitors: A firm we've been aware of for a long time with staff we've conversed with numerous times since their founding. It's not as if there is any firm out there claiming to have the complete opposite of these traits. This can then make them feel less capable. Taylor Price has a gr...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: Their site is https secure for entering your personal details in their contact form. Whilst most scams at the moment https: www.thetimes.co.uk static connected-families conveyancing-email-scam-hackers-steal-house-deposit " tend to involve conveyancing matters< a>, yo...


Summerfield Browne Solicitors: So is this firm any different? Obviously we think 'yes' as you can tell from our opener about them being a leading firm using a setup that is now increasingly common. When Covid hit many companies across all industries realised they can do the job just as easily fr...

Thaxted Legal Ltd: We've written over 200+ articles on legal service providers in the UK with tips on what to look for when trying to get legal help, resources you can use, and things to avoid. etc. So how do Thaxted fare on these independent forums? class="infoquote "very thorough an...


Stowe Family Law: The official site we link to above is www.stowefamilylaw.co.uk with www.stowefamilylaw.com not currently showing any firm. 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 oppo...


Stenfield Solicitors: That wasn't just the legal industry either. Whereas a new brand legal practice that popped up last month could have several well seasoned lawyers with dozens of years' experience between them. Never discuss payments or bank details via email and remember that even the most...


Springle & Co Solicitors: Best of luck in your search! . class="infoquote "We're independently owned and we believe that smaller is better. Another phrase concept we seem to have imported from the US. Always keep aware of what site you're on and who you're chatting with - either by emai...

Simper Law Ltd: For many years now https: www.lawgazette.co.uk news conveyancing-fraud-gang-jailed-for-diverting-deposit-monies 5103305.article" scammers have targeted such clients with emails< a> telling them the bank details for their house deposit have changed. At Simper Law they have...


The Search Bureau: All other variants we tried such as www.searchbureau.com and www.thesearchbureau.com were owned by different firms. So sadly there isn't a lot of independent comments floating around on the third party forums such as Google, Yelp, Yell, Trustpilot, etc. class="infoqu...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: class="infoquote "We are happy to have an initial discussion with you, with no obligation and no charge."< div> We would absolutely expect any firm handling litigation matters to offer this. The https: cyclingsolicitors.com " Cycling Solicitors< a> website ment...


Richmond Legal Ltd: So when you see a law firm with only a handful or even zero reviews, just bear that in mind and don't take it as a negative sign . Typically firms will handle a wide range of case types, or they will specialise. One good way to check up on a law firm or an individual s...


Rose Fendlen Law: Many companies have created Testimonial pages on their website. Employment Law ... We've covered the differences between the various types of litigation funding fees cost reclaiming in other articles but the short version is that '100% compensation' and 'no win no fee' are n...


Pump Court Chambers: It's not that they are a small firm either. Also at the moment the majority of scams are targeted at property law firms anyway because of the huge payoffs. Having worked in that environment, this often caused friction. That brings us to a quick note on what a 'chambers' actu...


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: This is because whilst people are very happy to jump online and give praise about their new toaster - they are less likely to rush to a public forum to discuss how their recent divorce, will writing, criminal defence, or bankruptcy went. We've also seen dozens of negative re...


OneLaw Chambers: OneLaw certainly has at least one other independent body backing up their claims as well, being https: www.legal500.com firms 232573-onelaw-chambers 232407-london-england " listed in the Legal 500< a>. 'one' and 'law') most search terms will bring up the firm at th...

MJV & Co Solicitors Ltd: class="infoquote "efficient, professional, helpful & informative every step of the way" "very efficient and professional team, putting us at ease throughout this difficult process" "MJV was head and shoulders above any other firm we've used"< div> The com...


Milners Solicitors: Now, through Milners, you can get your hands on all this legal expertise for a sensible price."< div> The information provided on the law society site certainly bears out their claims of extensive experience. (Quick tip, if you want to see reviews about a specific offic...


Michael Leighton Jones: Others include Peter FitzGerald who joined the UK legal system in 1996, right up to Sarah Price in 2003. Alot of problems such as ' https: www.actionfraud.police.uk a-z-of-fraud phishing" phishing< a>' can happen if you type the wrong domain name into a web browser. What ...


Mckie Legal: A good resource we always recommend using in conjuction with your search is local law societies. However the concept of the local solicitors office has become something of an almost quaint, nostalgic notion these days when Amazon will bring you any item in the world withi...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: Did that mean we skipped over the usual checks? Of course not. When it comes to personal injury it seems that many solicitors are just pushing clients through, taking a cut of the compensation cheque, and that's it. That brings us to a quick note about navigation. The main d...


Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: 'mackenzie jones solicitors chester' . and recommendations"< div> A quick note on navigation as the firm uses a shortened version for the web address. class="infoquote "Our legal service team have extensive experience"< div> One thing to be aware of when y...


Lindsays Solicitors: It's quite refreshing to see. But one thing that impressed us about Lindsays is the same sort of lack-of-boasting as we saw with their testimonials page before. So in true internet-style, those people came onto the review boards to bad-mouth the firm assigned to sell the p...


Lefevres Law: There are lots of other little bits and pieces around the web that most regular consumers may not notice. class="infoquote "We strive to learn everything about your company and truly get to know you on a personal level, so as to serve you as a trusted advisor for the ...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: But when it comes to Estate Planning there are some things to watch out for. Sadly, most law firms we've seen (and we've been reviewing them for over 20 years now) still do not work weekends. It could be their first day on the job. The quote above is from the website of KRS...


Khan Law: The majority of people would imagine there's a significant difference between a Motor Offence specialist and a general practice solicitor trying the same case. Using an experienced lawyer who takes 20% of a £5000 hard fought win is better than having a less expert law...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: A different firm we reviewed yesterday had several online complaints about spending most of their time talking to their solicitor's secretary. We know what we do best ..."< div> Coming back to similar names, this also means if you want to see reviews of the firm you nee...


HooperHyde: The only legal services we've seen consistent reviews on are conveyancing firms because people always have plenty to say about how their house sale purchase went. class="infoquote "I wanted to feel like I was making a difference to my clients, building relationships w...


Hill House Chambers: If you weren't aware - we are now quite far from the 'old days' of a high street solicitor's office where you have to go for anything legally oriented to get done. So always call the official phone number you have to check with the firm about such emails you've received. T...


Hawkridge & Company: Always make sure you're on the correct website and never discuss payments or bank details via email. This is important to note because over the past few years https: www.moneysavingexpert.com shopping stop-scams " thousands of people have handed over millions of...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: For example in the case of the firm we're writing about today ( Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents ) we couldn't find a dedicated page on the Law Society of Scotland's website. If a firm says 'we've been helping people for over thirty years' that seems very clear . However...


Frazer Coogans Ltd: led Frazer Coogans into rapid expansion to be one of the leading firms in the West Coast of Scotland."< div> It's hugely common for companies to claim they are 'one of the leading' in something. We've been reviewing law firms for over 20 years now. However at the time o...


Fair Result Ltd: At the moment https: www.halifax.co.uk aboutonline security protecting-yourself-from-fraud keep-your-home-safe-mortgage-deposit-scams.html" most scams involving law firm clients< a> tend to revolve around property matters such as buying and selling a home. When we s...


Education Law Service Ltd: It was still very positive : class="infoquote "excellent on the day ... Some will offer a reduced fee for the first consultation, up to a third of the usual hourly cost. This is either because the types of cases are so niche, so complicated, or possibly not the most l...


Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: Although the branding name used is quite unique and the possible spelling typos not likely to be too multitudinous. Make sure to read comments when it comes to law firms though, not just flick through star ratings. But it's really not a negative sign if a law firm you're loo...


DV Solicitors: 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 responsibilities efficiently"< div> Those are snippets from much longer pieces ...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: So it's probably a good idea to bookmark the correct site once you're on it to be sure you come back to the correct one. Or better still, post underneath their ad post asking for their regulatory status and number to try and warn others not to deal with them should they ...


David Stinson & Co: The first means you will have nothing to pay should your case lose. But note that 'no win, no fee' and '100% compensation guarantee' are not the same thing. We've already covered two branding options within this law firm's group, but David Stinson & Co is a slightly differen...


Cooks Solicitors: That's because when it comes to any legal practice handling property conveyancing matters - it's actually quite normal for them to have a poor rating. Again though, whilst many solicitors use different trading names to highlight specific case types out of the same office - t...


CEL Solicitors: But no-one's perfect. But it can get confusing for those stepping into the arena for the first time. We know firms that don't have a website or won't accept email communications, and the amount of printing and letter posting is simply absurd in this day and age. It can also ...


Catteralls Solicitors: For example, one firm we've written about previously claims a 150-year-history in the area simply because they moved into a building that was occupied by a much older firm initially. In all honesty, no legal practice has a 200+ year old solicitor sitting behind a desk issuin...


QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: class="infoquote "We are also the only Solicitors Firm in Lincoln who open every Saturday* from 09.30 to 12.30. (Hence us bringing it to your attention here.) Obviously we would never tell anyone that a specific firm is the right one for them. class="infoquote "...


Brown and Co Solicitors: class="infoquote "Brown and Co Solicitors is an experienced firm of solicitors offering legal services across a number of specialisms."< div> This may sound like a throw-away sentence which every legal practice states (i.e. To check the individual experience amo...


Bridge McFarland LLP: One thing to remember though is that when a firm has multiple offices you often have to type in the company name and location to see any reviews. class="infoquote "Our solicitors are ... There is also a huge difference between a firm that claims to have 40 yea...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: If you've read any of our other articles before, you'll know that we don't put a lot of stock in 'established in ...' ancient date claims by law firms. No, really. well ... For example, you would never see a bad review for Pizza Hut saying 'they wouldn't sell me a hamburger!...


BLZ Solicitors: One thing we have frequently quoted as a dislike on law firm's websites is the new wave of them sharing likes, dislikes, hobbies and favourite colours. That's something to watch for especially with property matters as scammers contact clients telling them deposits...


Bilkus & Boyle: One last stand out phrase from the firm's site: class="infoquote "We pride ourselves on our friendly service and are on call 24 7."< div>. it almost makes them meaningless. You may also find that many of the lowest ratings often have nothing to do with the firm'...


Bell Lax Solicitors: For all we know the poor rating is for something ridiculous or not even for the correct firm. class="infoquote "Are Drunken Contracts Binding?"< div> They have a real news section. Sometimes the law office provides testimonials on their website. In fact for most ...

JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: Especially when you consider no firm is going to claim the opposite (i.e. Again, a very rough example but to make a geniune point. This can make spotting differences between them to evaluate very difficult. That's because whilst people are more than happy to jump online an...


Beers LLP: class="infoquote "Whilst we have maintained our core value of outstanding client service, the use of the most up to date technology enables us to deliver innovative and cost effective solutions to our clients whether they be local or national."< div> The site is ...


Argue & Co Legal: So what are the review boards saying about Argue & Co as a firm? Well at the time of writing there were only a handful of reviews around the web in the usual places (Google, Trustpilot, Yell, Yelp, etc). This can make it harder and you need to read the actual comments...


Antony Hodari Solicitors: We've also seen many disgruntled reviews over solicitors refusing to take someone's case. The bulk of reviews for AntonyHodari were positive and many reflected their claim quoted above about promising to keep people in the loop: class="infoquote "I’m now getting a...


ABS Lawyers Ltd: Sometimes based on just a couple of official looking emails telling them to suddenly switch to paying their huge house deposit into a completely different bank account. class="infoquote "The quality and excellence of our services ensure our clients success and maximum...
