Looking for More Reviews of Popular UK Firms?
DV Solicitors: We try to offer varied legal service options across a wide range of case types. The idea being that people imagine a 200 year old amount of experience within a firm simply because their branding has existed for that long. class="infoquote "People rely on us, and we ...
Richmond Legal Ltd: A last word from the company's site: class="infoquote "Our litigation team has the wealth of experience in dealing with all types of litigation matters, whether these are civil or commercial"< div>. For example they state the lead solicitor, Suhail Ahmad, qualified as...
Trust Inheritance Ltd: The official site we link to above is https secure for entering your details in contact forms and is located at www.trustinheritance.com, with www.trustinheritance.co.uk redirecting you there just fine. We do ou checks just as much as you should before moving forward ...
Bilkus & Boyle: So where else can you search? class="infoquote "... Typically one side is always unhappy at how a sale has gone either due to timescale, delays with finance, things popping up during the search phase, and so on. But the client will generally blame their own solicitor. ...
Catteralls Solicitors: You are just as likely to get a one year qualified newbie solicitor from a one hundred year old practice as you are to get a twenty year well-seasoned solicitor from a one year old law firm brand. You'll note that they have solicitors that have qualified in every decade fro...
Penerley Lawyers: More recently though the number of people starting up their own small business or being self-employed has risen dramatically. Unfortunately this has not really spread to law firms as much as everywhere else. (We once had a negative comment because we helped lawyers and the...
The Search Bureau: Most services like The Search Bureau are used by larger companies.
If you've read some of our other articles where we research solicitors, barristers and law practices across the UK - you'll probably be used to seeing far more in depth information, resources, and opinio...
Education Law Service Ltd: For example:
class="infoquote • "Making formal written representations to persuade a Local Authority to carry out an assessment"
• "Challenging a refusal to assess before the Special Educational Needs Tribunal"
• "Reviewing a draft Education Health a...
Pump Court Chambers:
A quick note on navigation as there are many chambers using 'pump court' in their name. Again, though, a little thing like this impresses us because so many law firms don't bother spending the extra £5 to buy related domains to help protect their clients from easy fr...
Mason Bullock Solicitors: Typically we research a firm completely unbias and make the decision based on several factors such as their setup, case range, reviews, standing with the relevant regulatory bodies, and so on. Mason Bullock don't have a company-made testimonial section on their site either...
Lindsays Solicitors: But also several more recent additions such as Ben Doherty (qualified in 2004) and Douglas Roberts (2008).
Hopefully we've given you a few new resources to use with these articles and provided a few bits of information you maybe didn't know before to help when decidi...
Aspire Licensing: However to be clear - Aspire Licensing do not state they are a law firm in the traditional sense and no mention is made to 'solicitors' within the firm. For cases such as Motor Offenses or a Personal Injury, absolutely we would recommend a firm that is clearly a law office. ...
OTS Solicitors Ltd: Not so with OTS, who have a wide range of experienced staff such as Basil Gulbenkian (qualified in 1965), Veejay Sharma (2005), Oshin Shahiean (2013) right up to the almost brand new Angelique Holm (2019).
A quick note on navigation. Either way, still be on your guar...
Reid Black Solicitors: But even that still had a 5 star rating and ended with a bit about how the extra expense seemed worth it in the end.
It should be mentioned that Reid Black have moved away from the usual Testimonials page on their own site and actually list their Google reviews directl...
Howe + Co Solicitors:
class="infoquote "We act on our client's instructions, always putting our clients first and ensure that their needs are met"< div>
Again something very easy to check up on, however care should always be taken when browsing through comments left by people online. ...
Robin Somerville Direct Access Barrister: He covers a very specialist range though, dealing with commercial and employment issues. With of course no mention of what the awards were for (it could have been Best Logo 2002) or what area they are considering the 'leading' firm of (it could be their own very small vill...
Levins Solicitors:
The firm has a range of experienced staff qualified over the past four decades such as David Woods (qualified in 1984), Tracy Morgan (2003), and Jonathan Heath (2011). We don't just gush about how wonderful they are with lots of exclamation marks.
If you read the...
Aconveyancing Ltd: Such as when looking up news articles they had been quoted in. If you check out https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 631441 aconveyancing-limited" the page for this firm< a> you'll be able to view alternate contact details, languages spoken at the firm, qualificatio...
The Injury Solicitor Ltd: But such ancient founding claims are really just marketing ploys.
The Injury Solicitor is a genuine law firm with a qualified solicitor . They do not mean the same thing. But we also add firms that are large, small, niche, general practice, or just an alternative res...
RD Costings: (Your solicitor needs to get paid, right?) However your solicitor will typically already be recovering their fees and expenses from the third party. Then after you've had the initial interview, have gone all the way down to their office, and are ready to sign on the dotted l...
MGBe Legal: From the very (sometimes unfathomably) niche boutiques, to large international firms. This is reflected on the firm's website where the blog section contains actual help articles. Here are a few of our reasons for doing so. Any lack of reviews for a law firm does not ref...
McEwan Fraser Legal: Phone the official number in the headed paper you've already been sent out and ask about it. Either way www.mcewanfraser.co.uk and www.mcewanfraser.com are also not currently being used. (Please search for Rhod Gilbert's rant on award winning mince pies to more understand h...
Fieldfisher LLP: No win no fee just means that if you LOSE there will be no fees.
class="infoquote "For more than 30 years, we have helped thousands of people recover compensation for their injuries and illnesses."< div>
This is something you'll see on most firm's sites. But accor...
APS Legal & Associates: This particular claim above is made on a few pages we saw including the main page and their About Us section.
It is followed in each instance by a bullet point list of what makes their advisors better than others out there. Of course, the positive reviews continue ac...
Linkilaw Solicitors: If you check out https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 631933 linkilaw-solicitors-limited" the section for this firm< a> you'll see contact information, qualification dates of the relevant solicitors, details of their specialties, and more. But law firms are starting...
NV Legal Ltd: For example a highly experienced firm that gets you £4000 for your injury but takes a 25% cut, is still a better result than a less competent firm which gets you £2000 and takes nothing from it. The fact NV Legal is already doing this is a great indicator of a firm with ...
Simons Rodkin Solicitors LLP: The Law Society of England & Wales has a very helpful website , much more so than it's counterparts in other areas of the UK from what we've seen.
There are some things to read between the lines that are also very telling. How do you know which is best for you? How do...
DFA Law LLP: For example 7 staff members each with 3 years experience can be written as 'over 20 years of combined experience'. A 40-year established firm might stick you with a 1-year experienced solicitor, and a 1-year established firm might have a 40-year experience partner on staff. ...
Ian Mallon Solicitors: No, really. Sadly, the focus seems to be more on the person's favourite colour and hobbies rather than any real insight into how they will act as your solicitor. He attended the Institute of Professional Legal Studies Belfast in 2001 and was admitted as a Solicitor in Northe...
The Solicitors Advocates & Barristers Inc: The case was a success."
"would always answer calls nomatter how many times we needed reassuring or didn't understand something"< div>
These snippets from the more common review boards such as Google, Yell.com, Yelp, etc. The number of larger firms we know that sti...
Thorpe Wilson Solicitors: The official website is www.thorpewilson.co.uk which we link to above. The Law Society of England & Wales has an excellent website offering a wide range of information about the legal professionals and law offices registered with them. Sadly in the legal professional you m...
Allsop Durn Solicitors: The only issue would be perhaps mis-spelling the Alsop. However after so many years of flicking through such sites, we've noticed quite a few distinctions the less regular browser may not. However this is something you can often check yourself with independent sources . <...
MTA Personal Injury Solicitors LLP: The last thing you want to is mistype the name and end up giving your phone number to the wrong people..
Most lawyers in the UK are registered with a Law Society. It's a hugely helpful resource. We certainly don't operate a 'cram everyone in' type of directory. So even...
Apprise Legal Services: fully explained in easy to understand terms the various options available. For Wills and Probate matters, many people can genuinely be fine with just a bog-standard template that a junior staff member helps you fill in. They are meant to filter out trademarked terms, but n...
Aina Khan Law Ltd: While looking around for information about this firm you may see references to both Aina Khan Solicitors and Aina Khan Law Ltd.
For example - out of a hundred typical law firm websites at least twenty of them will say they are 'one of the leading law firms in the UK'. N...
Taborns Legal Business: On top of that, the cheaper service may be a legal professional that handles nothing but business contracts day in day out making them the more experienced option.
Hopefully after reading this it's a little clearer why we added this particular firm to our network despit...
R James Hutcheon Solicitors: Our services are often innovative and intuitive to meet the demands and needs of today's more sophisticated clients who require legal help on specific issues."< div>
Every law firm has these kinds of phrases and sales-pitches across their website. For example if there a...
Penn Chambers Solicitors: At a very difficult time he remained clear thinking when emotion was getting in the way of my better judgement."< div>
But according to our poll last year, less than 19% of you trust company testimonials on websites. All our Clients have access to all the important deta...
Frank Rogers Law Ltd:
We've linked to the official site www.frankrogerslaw.co.uk above. This is limited to 30 minutes."< div>
They also appear to have a genuine Blog section. a specialist driving offence solicitor knows how to present mitigating circumstances and can often get a penalt...
OJ Solicitors Ltd: However you never know what's around the corner so it's always advisable to do what you can to make sure you're in the right place on the web to begin with. In any given area we may only recommend 3-4 local law firms for your case type. Right now, a search for "OJ Solicitors...
Kudos Legal Ltd: We always recommend a good mix of experience versus new blood ideas in a firm. For the Glasgow office you can check The Law Society of Scotland. Because we don't take commissions for referring you, we have no bias as to which firm you select. communicated well at each step o...
Serious Law LLP: The firm themselves list a range of trademarks trading names including 'Serious', 'Serious Law', 'Serious Injury Law' and 'Helping to rebuild lives'. The official website we link to above is www.seriousinjurylaw.co.uk with the www.seriouslaw.co.uk version redirecting you t...
5 Essex Court: However with 5 Essex Court there seems to be a wealth of information, articles and reviews available right from the outset. However it's not uncommon for random adverts to appear under this or related keywords.
In the meantime, there is no shortage of praise amongs...
Avery Walters Solicitors: For example, a firm that states 'founded in 1883' could simply have bought the brand name or have found some really tenous family links with one of their staff. So how can you tell the jargon from the actual promises and the quality firms from the bad? Well, there are ac...
AWH Solicitors: Again though, this will not count for many case types such as injuries and medical negligence which you won't have to pay anything up front at all.
When researching this firm yourself around the web, you may see names such as Carter Law, Roebucks Solicitors, and Roberts...
Hampson Hughes Solicitors: Plus we see some people calling them Hampson and Hughes too.
As you'll have seen on the Law Society page we linked to above, this firm also goes by HH Law Limited. We tried a few on Google and the majority of the time the correct firm showed up but none of the domain va...
Lawcomm Solicitors:
Lawcomm should also get a couple of thumbs up for having a proper Blog section. Neil Woolgar qualified back in 1982, David Roper in 1991, and Kelly Pragnell in 2010. The same goes for www.lawcommsolicitors.co.uk or www.lawcommsolicitors.com or any of the hyphenated ve...
Redwood Collections Ltd: Some are setup to send threatening letters and to doorstep visits that are backed up with a legal department already in place. I was very pleased with the outcome ..."< div>
Oddly the vast majority of the reviews are positive on Google, Yelp, Yellow Pages and others. So...
Alexander JLO Solicitors: Remember that any error in the browser bar can get you redirected to a totally different site or pushed through a default search engine. www.liverpool-law.co.uk. These each typically have their own individual website and sometimes branding - e.g. If you head to third party r...
GloverPriest Solicitors: This may be reserved for house purchases sales only though. No, we're not exaggerating and no, we're not a fan when they do this.
We've seen negative reviews for when the buyer seller pulls out, for incorrect local searches, for third party delays - all of which the cl...
Jarmans Solicitors Ltd: I never once had to chase her for information ..."
• "... Our regional base keeps our rates competitive but we have clients all over the world."< div>
This is a more complex declaration compared to most we've read. When we first started reviewing law firms 2...
33Legal Ltd:
We've often said that it's better to get a 20-year experienced lawyer in a 1-year old firm than to end up with a 1-year experienced lawyer at a 20-year old firm. I don't understand the fascination, but it's well documented that attention spans have collapsed in recent ...
Hammond Trotter Solicitors: So it's not surprising that if a firm has stopped the worst from happening, people will be overwhelmed and want to express their appreciation. The same effect probably doesn't come from a Divorce or help writing a Will.
class="infoquote "This website is packed with inf...
Driscoll Kingston: This is typical with any personal injury firm. They haven't thrown open the gates on their case range though. Driscoll Kingston have articles on case samples, changes in the law, staff promotions, and their charitable efforts. More than a dozen snippets packed with odd gram...
SBW Law Ltd: The latter means there are no fees charged to the client at all, win or lose. SBW Law doesn't use such potentially misleading language on their website. Typically people tend to check out only the public reviews of service providers when researching them. No firm is ever...
IWC Probate & Will Services: Obviously these days many services can be provided without you ever having to visit the offices of the legal service provider you choose. Adding IWC Estate Planning & Management Ltd to our list of recommended firms was really a no-brainer moment for us. That doesn't mean it ...
Briffa Legal Ltd: We're always looking to get specialists on board, but finding specialists that aren't intensely arrogant about the fact they are specialists is more difficult than you might think. The Briffa Blog on the other hand is written by various members of staff who simply seem to wa...
