What Firms do we Recommend?

We've written dozens of full-length, in-depth, and un-bias review articles on various UK law firms covering a wide range of case types and locations. They are all hosted on our main website where you will also find a solicitor search function to find someone local to help.

Youngs Solicitors: There are a huge number of things that can go wrong which are completely out of your solicitor's control. For example, providing some easily accessible staff profiles, photos, and direct contact details of each individual solicitor. We have zero hesitation in recommending ...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: However for ULA Solicitors there are plenty of in-depth reviews stating exactly how they were helped. class="infoquote "At ULA Solicitors, we strive to represent our clients with the highest standards and exceptional determination. Ever since the '90s the government h...


Trust Inheritance Ltd: So why might you pick a niche firm like Trust Inheritance Ltd over your local high street firm that covers estate matters as well? If you want to get more solid figures about the actual experience of solicitors within any law firm, you can usually get it from their lo...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: As mentioned before though, whilst the firm is 'new' ( https: find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk company 11417981" having gone Limited in 2018< a>) we take that as a potentially positive attribute . For example, they claim to be "award-winning" on the...


The Injury Solicitor Ltd: class="infoquote "With almost 10 years' of experience in personal injury law, we understand that no two cases are the same."< div> The firm's local newspaper, Salford Now, http: www.salfordnow.co.uk 2020 12 16 i-never-imagined-that-i-could-have-my-own-law-firm-s...


Taylor Price Solicitors: Certainly the majority are positive with the main themes being the apparent dedication of the staff and the speed at which the work is accomplished. One that they seem to be offering face to face initial consultations for free at either of their Leeds or Levenshulme offi...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: So to check up on the information on your local office, just click the appropriate office link and select 'in this office'. The above are snippets from the firm's own testimonial page. People seeking help with divorce will tell people to 'AVOID!!' a Criminal Law specialist. ...


Stowe Family Law: So what are people saying about Stowe Family Law? class="infoquote "very supportive during otherwise difficult times" "She tells it like it is so I always know where I stand" "kept my costs to a minimum throughout my separation" "service was efficient and very r...


Stenfield Solicitors: class="infoquote "83% of new clients are recommended to us through word of mouth"< div> A quick note on navigation because although we link to the official site above as www.stenfield.com, there is a completely different firm using the www.stenfield.co.uk domain. ...


Springle & Co Solicitors: Not just the firm's name. A quick note on navigation with there being four words in the official branding Springle, and, Co, Solicitors) which can interchange with ampersands and 'company' mixed in too. Three, Google can be very difficult about law firm names and showing rev...


Simper Law Ltd: An easy mistake to make if typing things in late at night. For example if several people have said that they struggle to get through and speak to their solicitor - that's something to bear in mind and compare with. (Something companies tend not to include in their own testim...


The Search Bureau: SDLT.co.uk help stop stamp tax form rejections by pre-populating the forms and providing a printed SDLT5 certificate - they've handled over 3.6 million submissions to the HMRC already. The correct firm tends to come up at the top of search results for the majority of p...


Robin Somerville Direct Access Barrister: class="infoquote "Robin is a direct access barrister, mediator, investigator and arbitrator who has been involved in over 1,000 cases spanning more than 19 years"< div> Straight off the bat we liked this opening statement on barrister Robin Somerville's website....


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: However if a single solicitor says they are a specialist in Family Law, Litigation, Criminal Law, and Conveyancing - that's when the term is not being used fairly. On this occasion there are two main solicitors: Michael MacDonald who qualified as a solicitor in 1993, and Tho...


Richmond Legal Ltd: Therefore any legal professional still willing to help clients apply and then work under those provisions will always get some respect from us . Whilst we have nothing against firms that try to cover a multitude of services, there are some that clearly go well beyond their ...


Reid Black Solicitors: We'd like to share some bits and pieces that stood out. A quick note on navigation though. Obviously there could be mis-spellings of the Reid part with the whole 'i' before 'e' thing many of us still have stuck in our heads from school. The official site we link to above is ...


RD Costings: For some areas you may want a large firm with lots of resources. Criminal injury claims obviously require considerable tact in light of the types of cases brought. 100% compensation guaranteed means there are no fees if your case wins. (Your solicitor needs to get pa...


Pump Court Chambers: We trawl through dozens of law firm's websites every day. People are being tricked into https: www.thisismoney.co.uk money beatthescammers article-3897256 Beware-fraudsters-targeting-house-sale-proceeds.html" handing over their house deposits into a fraudster's< a> bank a...


Penerley Lawyers: Even today there are dozens of law firms that don't even have a website, let alone an online tracking system for people to check on their case progress. 'Less-stuffy' is a phrase we're seeing pop up more and more in newer firm's sales pitches about their services. c...


Pacific Law: We've been working with law firms for over twenty years now and some have confided that many negative reviews on their pages have been from people they beat in a case. But the major mobile players we checked all direct 0800 for free now. So public comments from previous cli...


OTS Solicitors Ltd: For some reason we can't quite fathom, the buyers sellers don't question this and simply hand all their house deposits over to the fraudsters. class="infoquote "Our team of Solicitors are dedicated to providing the best service to clients by catering to each and every ...


OneLaw Chambers: There are several independent review boards online such as https: www.google.com search?q=onelaw+chambers&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&oq=OneLaw+Chambers&aqs=chrome.0.0i355i512j46i175i199i512j0i22i30j69i60l2.900j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x487605d7d69d853f:0x1ba40eec...


My Law Matters: In fact, that's something we always recommend when it comes to law firms. It can therefore be a good idea not to type important web addresses into the browser bar incase you make a mistake and succumb to a https: www.gov.uk report-suspicious-emails-websites-phishing" ph...


Milners Solicitors: An enviable position for any firm to be in which can surely only benefit clients. They have lawyers on staff that joined the industry during all of the last three decades - such as Simon Bass who qualified as a solicitor in 1993, Victoria Barraclough in 2008, right up to La...


Michael Leighton Jones: Some firms even make statements such as 'established in 1881' as if that will make people think they are better than a firm started up in 2020. Useful context for negative reviews should be used to check if there is a theme. When you are flicking through law firm reviews rem...


Mckie Legal: Mckie Legal is named after the firm's director Andrew Ian McKie. So this seemingly innocuous sentence is actually worth quite a few brownie points . But when it comes to solicitors, no reviews should not be taken as a negative sign. The main address is in Penrith but they'v...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: However nothing that reflected negatively on the firm's actual potential services. One thing we've always pushed for in the compensation claims industry is more care of the client rather than a money-fixes-everything approach. Typically we research a firm completely unb...


LRose Law Ltd: The firm does not use multiple names and the existing name is quite unique so any variations of 'lrose solicitors' or 'l rose law' still brings up the correct firm in the top result. Make sure to listen carefully to the options provided and don't assume both will apply to ...


Lindsays Solicitors: Their website also isn't plastered with carefully selected testimonials, boasts about awards won, or how wonderfully charitable they are. It's quite refreshing to see. Not just the legal industry, but all companies as a whole. After reading through the comments we saw thre...


Levins Solicitors: Certainly we've had similar problems and it took six months to get a response out of Google. class="infoquote "We were established in 1986 as Keith Levin & Co, initially in Huyton village."< div> There is a trend amongst law firms to state the most ancient foundi...


Lefevres Law: (Their other locations being Glasgow and Edinburgh.) According to the Law Society of Scotland they are the same firm but for some reason the main Lefevres' law site states the Aberdeen office is at 70 Carden Place whilst everywhere else lists it as 40 Carden Place. Either wa...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: The Law Society of England & Wales has the best user-side offering we've seen from such organisations. Kamlesh Ratilal Samji (the K.R.S. Thanks to creation of the internet, law firms are able to select the case types they are good at and then find clients from f...


Khan Law: The majority have the same sort of sales language, the same images of people shaking hands happily, and the same boasts. But we have seen many firms calling themselves specialists simply because they don't handle absolutely everything. Using an experienced lawyer who takes ...


JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: Doing that should always help create a better representative for you in litigative matters. We did find some reviews for JPS Walker: class="infoquote "really helpful through-out our claim" "Great solicitors, professional, friendly" "successfully managed to se...

The Legal Practice Ltd: One very common thing we come across on law firm websites are founding date claims. We don't recommend it just for this firm's website either, but for all law offices that handle property matters. Today's article uses a firm actually called 'The Legal Practice' which is base...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: Which also means having worked with thousands of professionals within that industry during that time. 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. The practice of cla...


Howe + Co Solicitors: The firm did have testimonials on their website as well but at the time of us viewing they were stuffed into a tiny video-style playback box near the bottom of pages. The official website we link to above is www.howe.co.uk, with www.howe.com taking you to a design co...


HooperHyde: So how can you tell the crafty sales-pitches from the useful information? One of the best resources to start with is a local law society. As stated above though, for legal services that should not be taken as a negative sign. class="infoquote "I wanted to feel ...


Hill House Chambers: Always take care on the internet as many legal matters are now being targeted by scammers due to the large amounts of money available. As Hill House Chambers puts it: class="infoquote "The Direct Access (or Public Access) scheme allows members of the public to instruct...


Hawkridge & Company: That's why some of the largest conveyancing expert firms in the whole UK often have very undeserved 2-3 star average review ratings. Because nine times out of ten the firm will state they are such without providing any noticeable explanation or links to information about wha...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: There were even comments we would consider completely useless such as "I will take my business elsewhere!" with no clarification about why. Despite not being overly 'nationalised' about most things, this is something we do feel a little frustrated at. That's because ...


Frazer Coogans Ltd: Always kept us informed. It's one of those marketing jargon phrases that sounds great but essentially could be said by any firm. The most common typo we'd expect of www.frasercoogans.co.uk .com also does not seemed to be owned by the firm either. Watch out for Google ads t...

QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: But they are listed across the internet sometimes with that domain name and with email addresses using it. Unfortunately, in the heat of anger it seems that a considerable number of people who are unhappy with a 'QualitySolicitors' branded firm - simply rush online and write...


Fair Result Ltd: A big part of their setup seems to be that they will only work with reasonable people. Having worked in the legal industry for well over two decades now we've worked with hundreds of law firms and thousands of legal professionals. The only issue with being a new f...


Education Law Service Ltd: and in phone contact throughout"< div> If you typically like a bit more before parting with any cash though, luckily there is a growing trend amongst legal practices to offer free consultations. Some are less obliging offering just 15 minutes over the phone to help de...


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. John Houghton at this firm qualified in 1975, Rajesh Nair in 1999, right up to...


DV Solicitors: A few articles back we covered a law firm that had a 5 star review for being such a great dog-friendly restaurant. For motor offence court cases you may be better off with a Direct Access barrister. That's quite a feat for a firm that handles property matters because...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: class="infoquote "Are You Suffering With Damp, Mould And Other Repair Issues?"< div> DisrepairClaim.co.uk though are none of the above. 'No win, no fee' and '100% compensation' are two very different offers. To fix those missing floor boards. To sum up, w...


David Stinson & Co: The official website is at www.davidstinson.co.uk, and at the moment www.davidstinson.com is a different firm. 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..69i57j0i22i30l2j...


Cooks Solicitors: Again though, whilst many solicitors use different trading names to highlight specific case types out of the same office - this one relates to a completely individual office location within the Young & Co group. in a personal injury claim, professional and a top notch guy" ...


CEL Solicitors: So, claim absolutely verified. These days that doesn't just mean picking between one of the high street solicitors in your town. So what can highlight a difference? class="infoquote "As featured in Daily Mail, The Telegraph, The Times, This is Money ..."< div> CE...


Catteralls Solicitors: In all honesty, no legal practice has a 200+ year old solicitor sitting behind a desk issuing sage advice. 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 f...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: When it comes to law firms it is always a good idea to read the actual comments anyway rather than just flick through the ratings. But we've seen several people complain about a solicitor for not handling their particular type of case. Firms that handle a single case t...


BLZ Solicitors: We like to make sure we have a selection of types of help here on the 1to1Legal site. That's something to watch for especially with property matters as scammers contact clients telling them deposits need to be made to different bank accounts. These four case types are ...


Bilkus & Boyle: However these information spots are often blank or incomplete, and none show actual qualification dates of the lawyers within the practice like the English Welsh version does. The forty years Bilkus Boyle quote is therefore very reasonable and an understandable sort of fig...


Bell Lax Solicitors: class="infoquote "we can quickly understand your problem and provide sensible, down to earth advice with a clear and transparent approach to managing legal costs"< div> The greatest resource we've found for checking up on the experience levels of actual solicitor...


Beers LLP: However, we ran a poll last year and only 8% of you responded that you trust company provided testimonials. The only negative comment we saw was a complaint about a solicitor called 'Monty'. If there are several negative comments related to being uncontactable - that's a goo...


Aspire Licensing: Aspire Licensing & Administrative Services are probably one of the most niche firms we've ever had on our network. People have given away millions each year to fraudsters. At the moment, most fraudsters are doing their best to https: www.todaysconveyancer.co.uk main-news...


Argue & Co Legal: You will find it more likely for an actual solicitor to answer the phone and talk to you at a smaller firm which clients tend to feel better about . class="infoquote "... Litigation matters such as personal injury have huge range of sub-titles including medi...


Antony Hodari Solicitors: 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 all my repairs done but the housing have now also decided to give me a new kitchen and bath...


Aconveyancing Ltd: For example this article from https: www.standard.co.uk homesandproperty property-news stamp-duty-holiday-deadline-extension-rish-sunak-a140746.html" The Evening Standard< a> on stamp duty during the lengthy lockdown and the pressure currently on conveyancing firms in suc...


ABS Lawyers Ltd: They really actively target and can properly communicate with (and therefore surely better represent) Polish speaking claimants. They also state qualification dates which is something that could be very useful if you're sceptical of a firm's claims in that regard. Some go ...
