Cook Legal Ltd:
class="infoquote "Cook Legal is a Wirral law firm. So when they see lots of law firms stating local roots or activities it may seem like a marketing ploy. They handled a wide range of services and if you wanted something done, you went down or rang for an appointme...

QualitySolicitors Large & Gibson: So 'John Doe Solicitors' becomes 'QualitySolicitors John Doe', for example.

Girlings Solicitors LLP: However, we do not recommend picking a firm based on whether they guarantee you 100% compensation versus taking a 25% 'success fee' (the average percentage).

Mark Croft Solicitor: At the time of writing the site was not https secure so it might be better to ring with your queries until this is sorted. In fact, you could easily end up with a 1-year qualified newbie solicitor from a 200-year old firm, but a 40-year veteran lawyer from a 1-year old fir...
EMD Law LLP:
Originally starting under the name Baily Strickland and Bryant, the firm became Baily Bryant & Dumbleton in 2003, then finally EMD Law LLP in 2008.

Cullimore Dutton Solicitors: Plus, it's very common for clients of the other side to leave negative reviews on the opposing law firm (as their conveyancer will likely have blamed any and all delays on them).
The importance of all this is because for many years now property sales have been the big...
The Law Partnership Solicitors: Always read the comments. So a conveyancing solicitor with a high rating is actually a rarity. With the firm having generic terms in the branding it does mean you're less likely to get the correct firm when making errors too, such as searching for "the legal practice". For ...
