Youngs Solicitors: So it's essentially a collection of specialists within one office. At the time of writing there were a few things on their website we thought could be better for clients. class="infoquote "We believe in transparency and therefore list our fees on our website. Each br...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: Those clients then simply transfer the money to the fraudster's bank account without bothering to check with their solicitor about the payment change. We've seen a sad trend for solicitors to start listing their favourite foods and pet's names in their profiles. There is a d...


Trust Inheritance Ltd: We do ou checks just as much as you should before moving forward with a company. We've talked a lot before about specialists versus general practice firms. For example, a firm that states they handle "Will & Probate" matters may simply help people create a Will. Obvious...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: That means you can actually look up how many years each staff member has been a solicitor AND see the case types they specialise in. As mentioned before - when it comes to Immigration these days it's probably a very good idea to make sure your lawyer is a specialist. ...


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. That's ...


The Injury Solicitor Ltd: These days solicitors move around law practices and even start up their own much more than just a few decades ago. But several things stood out to us which we thought we would share. This is quite justifiable in some circumstances such as for difficult cases including medi...


Taylor Price Solicitors: For example, when most people are charged with a motoring offence they will immediately look for a 'specialist' firm . But that's exactly what happens all too frequently with lawyers. The age of the law office's brand name is therefore rather unimportant. A really great re...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: Testimonials always look different from third party review site comments because they are typically a page of positive-only messages from people the firm have hand chosen. That's just plain rude. They have their own https: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk...


Stowe Family Law: class="infoquote "Within our 80-plus strong team of leading UK divorce lawyers, we have forensic accountants, a dedicated children’s department, an adoption team, surrogacy law specialists and an international family law department and we also have trained mediators...


Stenfield Solicitors: But how are people feeling about the services they've received from Stenfield Solicitors? The firm doesn't have a testimonials page, but that's actually not a big issue for us or most other either. It's not uncommon for a firm claiming 'founded in the 1800s!' to consist mo...


Springle & Co Solicitors: This allows you some insight into whether a firm at least has some genuine experience in that area of law. Every client relationship matters to us."< div> Springle & Co is registered with The Law Society of England & Wales and if you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org...


Simper Law Ltd: For some reason though, the legal industry still has the complete opposite mentality. You'll also be shown the qualification dates and specific case expertise of each solicitor within the firm. It also has a few quirks that will allow us to discuss important things to ...


The Search Bureau: But it's surely a fair one. That's not the sole basis for us promoting The Search Bureau across our network (check the https: www.searchbureau.co.uk community" page on their charity work< a>). They've partnered with some of the leading industry firms such as Landm...


Robin Somerville Direct Access Barrister: Therefore if they don't use it, they won't state it on their site. Most companies will more likely have some vague references to greatness, such as 'we are one of the leading award-winning law firms in the area!' . However there are many situations where going direct t...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: . Reynolds Macdonald are registered with The Law Society of England & Wales which is great because they have the most useful and info-packed user side database we know of. litigation) follow the same sorts of procedures and have similar issues to contend with. That means...


Richmond Legal Ltd: Sometimes just with a couple of official looking emails. 'Jack of all trades, master of none' springs to mind. 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 p...


Rose Fendlen Law: None of the variants we tried such as www.rflaw.co.uk or www.lroselaw.com seemed to be owned by the firm. 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 cont...


Reid Black Solicitors: So by showing reviews from a third party site and linking to that site so people can check the comments are by real people (e.g. Whilst not actually based in England Wales, Reid Black will inevitably deal with a lot of other law firms, insurers and businesses in that ar...


Pump Court Chambers: Prior to this you would have to hire a solicitor, tell them all about your case, then they would go hire a barrister and get them to handle court side of the matter. Prior to this new setup, quite often the first time a client would meet their barrister is about 10 minutes b...


Penerley Lawyers: Never discuss bank details via email with anyone. Obviously during lockdown though everything is a bit haywire. The idea being that most people have an image in their head when the term 'solicitor' is mentioned. Although https: www.theatlantic.com magazine archive 2020 05 ...


Pacific Law: But sadly the confusion over 0345, 08000, 0808, 0871, etc. Don't just rely on star ratings. This could include breaking away from the typical 9am-5pm Mon-Fri working hours and offering some late night appointments. Never discuss bank details or payments via email. ...


OTS Solicitors Ltd: There are many wonderful firms without a single drop of publicity ink. Most people know how to spot fake reviews, but the main thing to remember is to actually read comments - don't just glance at star ratings. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 601629 o...


OneLaw Chambers: This has the obviously advantage of saving huge amounts of time, hassle, and money . Something to keep in mind when researching or trying to find the firm again. Prior to this, if you needed a barrister to represent you in an actual court you would need to hire a solicitor ...


My Law Matters: Either way we would still recommend bookmarking the correct site because the firm deals with property which has become a huge target market for scams. class="infoquote "Our expert team are at your disposal at a time which suits you, enabling you to minimise the ...

Frazer Coogans Ltd: class="infoquote "In May 2015, Frazer Coogans opened up their Prestwick branch, acquiring the former firm of Lawson Russell Solicitors."< div> Having worked with law firms for over two decades now and seen many of them merge or buy out other firms, 9 times out of ...


Milners Solicitors: For each firm registered with this law society they display alternate trading titles, contact details for all offices, languages spoken, and (most importantly) the qualification dates and specialties of each solicitor within the firm. People are very quick to jump online and...


Michael Leighton Jones: When you are flicking through law firm reviews remember that people are far less likely to share their feelings about their messy divorce than they are about the restaurant they just ate at. Useful context for negative reviews should be used to check if there is a theme. ...


Mckie Legal: That means more than you might think. A solicitor that takes 10% of your settlement but gets you £5000 compensation is a far better choice than one who takes no cut but only gets you a £1000 early settlement deal. We've covered many firms that proudly start off their websit...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: It's a difficult area of work , often futile, and not a massively well paying job to take on. So it's always a good idea to bookmark sites like this if you plan on returning and never discuss payments or bank details via emai.. Mason Bullock have also tried to raise...


Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: Just ... 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 specialti...


Lindsays Solicitors: To get a wider view that includes negative opinions. But in recent years law firms that deal in property matters https: www.express.co.uk finance personalfinance 1251363 mortgage-scams-expert-property-owners" have been targeted by scammers heavily< a>. Lindsays does...


Levins Solicitors: The experience of the staff is the most important thing and we'll cover that later. Most discussing why you should use them of course. But the solicitor will always get the blame. We did find though that when you start typing 'levins solicitors' into Google it sometimes dis...


Lefevres Law: That way when you search our database for help in your area we can show you everything such as a regular high street general practice solicitor, a specialist firm, a direct access barrister, a non-law-firm based solution, and others. The Law Society of Scotland does https: ...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: There's obviously a massive range of variants people could attempt such as www.krs.co.uk or www.krsestateplanning.co.uk so we would recommend bookmarking the site just to be sure. of the firm name) https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk person 121811 kamlesh-ratilal-samji" ...


Khan Law: 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. Using an experienced lawyer who takes 20% of a £5000 hard fought win is better than having a less expert lawyer ta...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: There are other lawyers in the UK using Jacob in the name. If we did need that much legal help so often, then there would be something so seriously wrong with us that you shouldn't listen to a work we say anyway. class="infoquote "Wherever we are, we operate in a...


Howe + Co Solicitors: If you've been searching for a law firm for a while already today, you'll have seen the majority have very similar sounding sales pitches. One of the few areas of law Howe & Co don't actually handle though is Conveyancing, which is the most common legal area facing fraudster...


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: But it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the scam of ' https: www.ncsc.gov.uk guidance phishing" phishing< a>' and maybe read a few articles about https: www.takefive-stopfraud.org.uk conveyancing-scams " conveyancing scams< a> to see just how bad it can be if ...


Hawkridge & Company: Hawkridge & Co on the other hand have big clear logos at the bottom of their page showing Lexcel Accreditation, the Society of Trust & Estate Practitioners, Accredited by Solicitors for the Elderly, and so on. Very often a bunch of the negative reviews will be from ...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: For all we know they called Fultons about a divorce case and was refused representation. 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. c...


Fair Result Ltd: Often an accountant can assist in resolving a tax dispute. Again that sounds like it means something but if that firm's office has a bright pink upward sliding door painted with purple Spongebob characters - that would technically count as them providing a 'unique' experienc...


Education Law Service Ltd: A quick note on navigation as the firm uses quite generic terms for their branding. For example Wills and many Tax matters can be handled by companies without any legal qualifications. The official website we link to above is www.educationlawservice.com and www.educati...


Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: It may be a sad side-effect of the Facebook Instagram age we live in but many people do make decisions about whether to use a solicitor or not much easier if there is a photo. Just remember that 'no win, no fee' and '100% compensation' do not mean the same thing. The main po...


DV Solicitors: Something you'd like to see in any legal practice you're thinking of using. Debt recovery is another area where using a specialist non-solicitor-based company could be a better solution for your particular needs. Most interesting to us though are the qualifying dates of t...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: To fix those missing floor boards. That means they do not have solicitors on staff but will take your details, discuss your case, then find a solicitor from their own panel of firms to process the matter on your behalf. There is a simply huge number of keyword related webs...


David Stinson & Co: It can also be to capitalise on the brand name the firm has locally even after merging with another firm. class="infoquote "We work on road accident claims and workplace accident claims among others on a no win no fee basis."< div> All law offices that handle i...


Cooks Solicitors: They are certainly meaningless, but also often completely tenuous too. So to see a simple claim based on the actual experience levels of the staff within a firm, displays a level of honesty and clarity that perhaps the majority of people will overlook. But if you wou...


CEL Solicitors: So whilst there are negative reviews about this firm too (and some with what sound like very valid complaints) - there are several comments that are just weird or look like they are about the wrong firm. When legal issues come up, it's good to have options. There were ...


Catteralls Solicitors: The most common errors of www.catterall.co.uk, www.catterallsolicitors.co.uk, and to a lesser extent the dot coms as well are all owned by other companies too. You are just as likely to get a one year qualified newbie solicitor from a one hundred year old practice as you are...


QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: 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. That's probably why less than 8% of you indicated you trusted company testimonials during our poll last ...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: No, really. class="infoquote "We get to know you and take the time to understand your unique needs"< div> That brings us back to the original query at the start of this article about whether this firm has anything beyond just comments about having a long history. ...


BLZ Solicitors: 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 see if it is something worth pursuing. BLZ Ltd is the same firm, it's just their official Limi...


Bilkus & Boyle: The Law Society of Scotland on the other hand is not nearly so forthcoming with such details. A quick note on navigation. Sadly so many firms use terms such as 'modern', 'friendly', 'established', etc. They may very well assign a one year qualified newbie solicito...


Bell Lax Solicitors: By that we mean most legal companies in the UK tend to use the same sort of sales language, highlight the same points, and make the same claims about their company that practically every other law practice does too. class="infoquote "dealt with my case in a very sup...

JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: Doing that should always help create a better representative for you in litigative matters. But there is actually much more to unpack there than you might think: class="infoquote "We are a modern firm of Solicitors"< div> Most firms will state they are 'modern', '...


Beers LLP: But we didn't see such a solicitor named as working at this firm. 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. However that doesn't mean we ignore flaws or hide negative press when w...


Aspire Licensing: Certainly we can't think of one that's more niche off-hand, but we've been doing this for over twenty years now. For example a Level 2 Award in Food Safety in Catering, Level 2 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace, Level 3 Emergency First Aid at Work, and so on. The f...


Argue & Co Legal: if you would rather correspond via phone, email, WhatsApp, Zoom, text message or Facebook Messenger etc, then we will happily tailor our service to your preferences."< div> You would think that these days (and especially after the pandemic hit) most law firms would offe...


Antony Hodari Solicitors: Something you'd want in any company really. The only common typo we saw in our logs was for www.anthonyhodari.co.uk with an 'h' in the first name. As specialists go, this is an unusual one to find. We try to cover a range of solutions for legal problems including havin...


Aconveyancing Ltd: providing some extra time for people to call with questions. None of that seemed to apply to Aconveyancing's reviews. You may very well get a one year qualified solicitor taking your case at a 200 year old firm. class="infoquote "We’re transparent about timescal...


ABS Lawyers Ltd: class="infoquote "if someone wants to fight for compensation, their help will be a good choice" "the topic was already closed and nothing could be won, but under their supervision somehow it moved forward" "So for me such support from the law firm was very im...
