Looking for More Reviews of Popular UK Firms?

Those weren't enough? Okay, well here are some more reviews we created for people. Mostly they are aimed at trying to educate people on how to research law firms themselves rather than simply giving our opinion on whether they are a perfect match for your particular service. Remember, comparing a dozen different retailers all selling the same products is very different from trying to compare professional services for personal matters:

Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors: With people moving more freely between companies these days that is even less true now than it was fifty years ago. The idea being that the older the firm, the more experienced it is. class="infoquote "Our team of industry experts have been brought together t...


Guardian Law: They were all very positive , but lacking enough comments content to provide a good overview of the firm. class="infoquote "our specialist employment lawyers can advise and represent you"< div> Today's article is on Guardian Law, an Employment Law specialist ...


Backhouse Solicitors: would make researching and choosing the right firm for you far more simple and sure. This includes Minal Backhouse who qualified in 1997, Clare Sheeran in 2001, Nathan Gray in 2018, right up to Sarina Hayes in 2020. It's a firm we've worked with for many years but I hope...


WH Solicitors: But not all specialists are the same. That's not to dismiss larger firms with multiple specialists on board. There are firms out there that say 'we specialise in xyz' and list a massive number of areas of law. We cover locally, nationally and internationally."< ...


Two Harcourt Buildings: They do not travel into those official addresses every day for work. class="infoquote "We welcome instructions from professional clients in both public and private practice to undertake privately funded, direct access and legal aid work."< div> Thankfully, Two H...

MJV & Co Solicitors Ltd: While seeing such a description is not rare amongst many types of business, it's something we've stopped seeing so much amongst solicitor's practices. The first is simple. If that's 2x solicitors with 25 years' experience = still pretty good and making sense. That's ...


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. 8 staff x 5 years experience = 40). Take this example: class="infoquote "Bridge McFarland LLP is a leading regional law fi...


Woodstock Legal Services: However on this occasion we have because they are not just hand-picked and solicited client remarks but actual comments from industry peers who have worked with the firm. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 562283 woodstock-legal-services-limited" check the ...


Stephanie Heijdra: They also will be far more specialised in certain areas of law because they are more likely to have to represent you in court over the matter. We also hope it clarifies why Stephanie Heijdra was one of such legal professionals we decided to add to our own network.. The e...


Summerfield Browne Solicitors: We've always said to ignore average ratings and always read comments . For some, the fact they use email sometimes is the pinnacle of their 'modern' achievements. We've written many articles on what to look for in a law firm to make sure you get legal advice from the best m...


Thaxted Legal Ltd: But Immigration specialist firms are sometimes only https: www.gov.uk government organisations office-of-the-immigration-services-commissioner" registered with the OISC< a> (Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner) which provides much less. However the usua...


Smith and Graham Solicitors: Including Colin Sleeman (qualified in 1983), Andrew Blair (1999), Jonathan McGowan (2009), Himat Sidhu (2014), right up to Zarah Rowntree in 2022. People have ended up https: www.walesonline.co.uk news homes-property home-buyers-warned-scam-could-21957792" handing over te...


Brown and Co Solicitors: Here are some of the resources we use that you might not have known about or things to watch for you might not have thought about. If a firm states they have a certain number of years' experience 'within the firm' this usually means they've added up all staff's experie...

Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: The things we use to evaluate a firm are probably things most potential clients do as well. 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 ...


Hill House Chambers: At the moment of writing www.hillhousechambers.com wasn't owned by anyone and other variants such as hillhousebarristers were also available. Biggest things to watch for are emails about money, payments, or bank details as that should never happen . But it's a good idea to ...


Stowe Family Law: Whichever side you've typically come down on in the past, we don't think the size of the firm should sway your decision to use them. class="infoquote "Whatever you’re facing as a family, in whatever shape yours is, was, or will be, we’ll be here to listen to what...


Rose Fendlen Law: Many firms use the same sales language, offer similar services, make similar promises, and even use similar images on their websites of people looking sternly at pieces of paper or shaking hands smiling. class="infoquote "your case will be handled diligently, sensitiv...


Bell Lax Solicitors: Even amongst conveyancing law firms where https: monzo.com blog we-sent-our-house-deposit-to-a-fraudster-who-posed-as-our-lawyer" fraud is currently rampant< a>, many of those companies have not bothered spending the extra £5 to purchase any of the alternative tld d...


JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: That date however is simply when that particular name started to be used. 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', 'friendly, 'experie...


The Legal Practice Ltd: This is because most people buying selling a house will always feel that the process should have gone much, much faster and been far, far less complicated. But some of the things we'll cover now will hopefully provide a little more insight into the general issues withi...


Youngs Solicitors: Most importantly, it does not pay out an up to date payment rate for solicitors. The situation is almost as bad as trying to find and NHS dentist in this country. We have branch offices in Newcastle-under-Lyme (trading as Cooks Solicitors) and in Aylesford, Kent (trading as ...


Lefevres Law: If you've already been through a dozen or so other legal company websites today looking for a good fit for you and your case - that's something you may have noticed quite quickly. The Law Society of Scotland does https: www.lawscot.org.uk news-and-events legal-news iain-ni...


David Stinson & Co: The only exception to this would really be a medical negligence case against the NHS. Written like that, it doesn't look nearly as impressive. The most commonly checked are https: www.google.com search?q=David+Stinson+%26+Co&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB926GB926&oq=David+Stinson+%26...


Cooks Solicitors: It also means you've got the best of both worlds - i.e. Of course, the first point of call for most people are the prior customer reviews when they are checking out any service provider. Most solicitors will blame the other side's solicitor for any issues that arise. T...


Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: class="infoquote "We will provide free first advice."< div> . The above are snippets from the firm's own testimonial page. We can help you."< div> Certainly Swain & Co stands out clearly as an individual firm rather than just a branding exercise under a parent na...


My Law Matters: Because whilst many negative comments can be totally unhelpful (e.g. But there are no negative implications we know of for firms having different brandings. Sadly thousands of people https: www.express.co.uk finance personalfinance 1497866 Lloyds-bank-scam-warning-fraud-m...


Frazer Coogans Ltd: You can get a 1-year novice from a 200-year old firm. That's why the majority of law firms that deal with conveyancing and related property matters will most likely have a big chunk of negative reviews. A quick note on navigation. For some reason, thousands of people h...


QualitySolicitors Burton & Co: Whilst most of our articles are about individual firms along with the pros cons and things that stood out, today's piece on Burton & Co LLP will have to cover some new ground. class="infoquote "We combine the service you expect from a national brand with the local kno...


OneLaw Chambers: It's not common knowledge, but not all solicitors are qualified to go into court and argue cases. Something to keep in mind when researching or trying to find the firm again. So how do One Law's barristers fare on those: class="infoquote "great communication and outc...


Beers LLP: That is not the case. The Law Society database also lets you see if a firm really does 'specialise' in your case type. Whilst most of the time people may think of specialist firms as handling only one area of law such as Criminal or Divorce matters - these days it is v...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk: To get that kitchen working. There is a simply huge number of keyword related websites targeting this area of litigation such as www.housingdisrepairhelpline.co.uk, www.housing-disrepair-claims.co.uk, and www.housingdisrepairlawyers.co.uk (just to pick out the first three in...


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. If you https: solicit...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: class="infoquote "If you choose to instruct us we will act on a No Win No Fee or fixed fee basis."< div> This is the main way such cases are funded. A 200-year-old firm might still stick you with a 1-year qualified lawyer. Apparently people really are sending tens...


ULA Solicitors Ltd: That's why most firms will not help clients that rely on Legal Aid for funding. class="infoquote "The team members are experts in their analytical approach to cases, probing the evidence, and being prepared to challenge statute, case law, and evidence."< div> . It sta...


Taylor Price Solicitors: This can then make them feel less capable. However some firms with long case lists can still absolutely be 'specialists' as long as there are individual lawyers within the firm focused on certain niche case types each. It's not the age of the firm that's important, but...


Michael Leighton Jones: There are also https: www.theguardian.com money 2021 jan 02 homebuyers-scams-stamp-duty-holiday-" many scams right now involving house deposits< a>. That's very common though. For example, we did see one negative review about this firm on Google where the person gave one ...


Milners Solicitors: We ran a poll last year and only 8% of people said they trusted company testimonials. This becomes important to note because the firm handles property matters which https: www.thetimes.co.uk static connected-families conveyancing-email-scam-hackers-steal-house-deposit...


KRS Estate Planning Ltd: These options are obviously incredibly cheap compared to using a full on law firm. At the moment most scams in the law industry are aimed at property sales purchases with fraudsters https: www.lloydsbank.com help-guidance protecting-yourself-from-fraud keep-your-home...


Branch Austin McCormick LLP: However it really all depends on how the firm is set up . There were also several comments about how fast the process had been whether for a property sale or immigration matter. class="infoquote "As such, we work with an established network of independent law firms in...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd: They provide a huge amount of user-side data about the law firms registered with them including alternate trading names, other office addresses, extra contact details, and so on. class="infoquote "We have expertise at all levels of immigration."< div> Reading thro...


CEL Solicitors: We typically don't quote reviews listed on a firm's own website (more commonly called 'testimonials') ever since our poll last year indicated that only 8% of people trust such testimonials on company sites. That's something we see a lot of when firms claim to be 'award-winni...


Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents: "excuse after excuse blaming my own solicitor" . As that information isn't readily available in Scotland (yet) we have to do a bit more digging. Despite not being overly 'nationalised' about most things, this is something we do feel a little frustrated at. However we've not...


HooperHyde: Why is that important? class="infoquote "Lawyers with over 10 years' experience in their field of expertise. class="infoquote "HooperHyde is a trading name of CLP Group Limited"< div> On the law society's website you'll be able to see a great deal of inform...


Antony Hodari Solicitors: But the name is so unique that if you type 'anthony hodari' into a search the correct firm still pops up. As specialists go, this is an unusual one to find. But we didn't find out the spark that created Antony Hodari. One we saw last week was particularly odd because t...


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. 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 t...


Dylan Nair Solicitors Ltd: If you too have already been through dozens of websites today looking for a solicitor to help you with a legal matter, you may have noticed many firms all claiming to be 'modern', 'experts', 'experienced', and 'friendly'. But just keep aware whether you've come back t...


Mckie Legal: class="infoquote "Insurance policy in place so nothing to pay win or lose*."< div> It therefore looks as though Mckie's solicitors offer both . Scammers convince people selling their house that they need to pay the deposits into fraudulent bank accounts. It mea...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: class="infoquote "Wherever we are, we operate in accordance with our ethical business principles of quality, unity and integrity." < div> Neatly brings us to notes on navigation, as there are a few things to watch for here. Entering the full firm name plus locati...


Argue & Co Legal: We've seen conveyancing firms with over a thousand reviews on a single review site. But they really don't. Having to relay details of your accident and injuries to a more-secretarial staff member can feel a little like having to explain your embarrasing symptoms to the GPs r...


Springle & Co Solicitors: Law firms typically receive less reviews than other services such as restaurants or garages. class="infoquote "The law is complex but we explain everything in plain English."< div> Life is complicated and so is death unfortunately. Other common sources peop...


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. That's not the case though and there are hundreds of fi...


Hawkridge & Company: As already pointed out in the last paragraph, the firm seems to be referred to quite interchangably online as both Hawk Law and Hawkridge & Company. class="infoquote "Hawkridge & Company solicitors ensure a personal and supportive approach to every client"< div> U...


Pacific Law: Pacific Law is very new addition to our database of law firms and they are a very new firm as well. ​ class="infoquote "Our technology takes care of the stuff in the background so our legal team can focus on what's important - you."< div> A quick note on navi...


ABS Lawyers Ltd: class="infoquote "ABS Lawyers are a law firm with over 85 years of combined experience"< div> There are typically three ways for firms to give the impression that they have the experience necessary to handle your case with great proficiency. ABS's 85 years though ...


Stenfield Solicitors: We have niche practices, specialist consultants, barristers, and even non-law-firm related solutions to some problems such as debt or will writing. This includes Joan Thorpe-Anderson who qualified in 1993, Caspar Kennedy in 2008, Deepa Sevani in 2015, and so on. In this...


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. People have lost £millions over the past decade

DV Solicitors: However these ancient establishment date claims are mostly just marketing. We've even had a negative review for contributing to the UK's 'capitalist regime'. You may get a one year qualified solicitor from a 200 year old firm. Reviews for property firms are therefore u...
