www.drivingdefences.co.uk: The longer a motor offence runs on for, the less options become available. So after all this time there must surely be plenty of reviews on the firm? Yes there is.

www.helix-law.co.uk: Solicitors second. It's as if a website can't be considered 'official' unless you have a bunch of articles no-one ever reads. We actually ended up reading their insolvency case study, the 1-month tenancy contract warning, and the smash and grab adjudication pieces. Typ...


www.nvlegal.co.uk: You can end up having someone's secretary as your only point of contact. class="infoquote "100% no win, no-fee"< div> This statement on the firm's website could use some clarification. If you check https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 555160 nv-legal-...

www.dvsolicitors.com: There are titles such as 'How Brexit is going to Affect the Immigration Policies for the UK (2021)', 'Cryptocurrency and Wills', and 'How to Video-Witness a Will'. Far better than most others we've used. But there are no 200 year old solicitors imparting wisdom. Most people ...


www.abslawyers.co.uk: Out of these snippets above the last one may sound a little confusing. Or two solicitors with 40 years' experience and one with 5. class="infoquote "We ensure that customer service, rather than our profits, is the number one priority."< div> This is another claim ...


www.gloverpriest.com: A 200-year old firm might still stick you with a 1-year qualified solicitor to run your case. There are some personal profiles on the About page of the site detailing a couple of dozen staff. We also read in the reviews about how Glover Priest have an online tracking s...


www.aconveyancing.com: But also because most people end up cross with their conveyancer at some point during the sale or purchase.

www.ianmallon.com: That's why we have local, international, large, small, general practice, niche boutique, solicitors, barristers, accountants, paralegals and more. Sadly, the focus seems to be more on the person's favourite colour and hobbies rather than any real insight into how they will a...


www.levinslaw.co.uk: The official website of the firm is www.levinslaw.co.uk as linked to above. There is a https: www.todaysconveyancer.co.uk partner-news 2-5m-client-money-lost-early-2020-good-policies-procedures-essential-say-regulators " huge number of people falling for conveyancing scam...


www.sr-law.co.uk: Whilst many firms will use the Blog News Article section to just write extra sales pitches thinly disguised as help - Simons Rodkin have put together some really in-depth help pieces that can give you a decent head start in understanding your case and what's needed. General ...

On the 1to1Legal search function we always try to ensure there's a balanced number of specialist firms such as this alongside the general practice firms that cover a range of legal and or business matters. A fin...


www.fieldfisher.com: It may therefore come as a surprise that we have added Fieldfisher Llp to that list considering they seem like a 'common' large law firm. Whether they are unbelievably niche in their target area of law or excel in a certain aspect such as customer service , we find the...


www.frankrogerslaw.co.uk: He assured me that I had a defence to the charge & prepared the case for Trial guiding me through the whole process. One for Scotland, one for England Wales, and one for Northern Ireland as each has quite separate legal setups. This should be stated clearly on their website ...


www.taborns.com: Sadly when it comes to business law, costs can vary far more than with consumer matters. We either try to provide those bits and pieces you might not have known about the firm - or try and summarise if there is an overwhelmingly large amount of information for people...


www.integrallaw.co.uk: Other popular forums are available including Trustpilot, Yell.com and Yelp. According to our poll a couple of years ago, the majority of people don't trust company testimonials on their own website anyway. They will provide you with alternative trading names for the fi...

www.rdcostings.co.uk: (Yes, we have experience in this area. RDCostings don't have 'Online Compensation Calculators' tempting you in with promises of £10,000 settlements for your paper cut. The majority of possible variants we mentioned (e.g. class="infoquote "RD Costings have the experienc...


www.lindsays.co.uk: Their website also isn't plastered with carefully selected testimonials, boasts about awards won, or how wonderfully charitable they are. One last actually boastful sentence from the firm's site: class="infoquote "It's no coincidence that some clients have been with us...


www.trustinheritance.com: Certainly when we tried various search phrases several related companies showed up in the results including Inheritance Legal Services Ltd, Guardian Inheritance Ltd, The Inheritance Experts, and dozens of law firms using those words in the title of their Wills Probate sectio...


www.allsopdurn.co.uk: So does that make us bias enough to throw away 20+ years of impartial article writing? Well, if we've seen fit to add a firm to our network in the first place - then clearly we already think they are a positive choice. Flick through enough solicitors' sites and you'll start ...


www.robinsomerville.co.uk: Not just for the legal industry either. However, we couldn't get it to work. But you never know what might be thought of next so make sure you are on the correct website and never discuss bank details via email. It's quite far from the common marketing jargon you've probably...


www.iwcprobateservices.co.uk: As we provide services for overseas clients enquiries are often answered outside of normal office hours."< div> One question we see asked alot is about phone call charges. Many firms hate review sites and we've covered a couple of firms where a chunk of the 5 star revie...


www.5essexcourt.co.uk: You won't find any of the typical staff profiles here which is a welcome relief . There are many firms around the UK that have both solicitors and barristers or dually qualified staff on board. Clearly 5 Essex Court are highly regarded by other professionals , but th...


www.hampsonhughes.com: Unfortunately the only way to really know if a firm lives up to that promise is at the end of the case. So how else can you judge the merits of a firm? class="infoquote "Our experienced personal injury solicitors assists people who have been injured in non-fault accide...


www.hutcheonlaw.co.uk: If you do see an actual compensation calculator on a firm's site though, don't bother with it. Not just the legal industry either - in general. So what do we like and dislike about R James Hutcheon Solicitors. '100% compensation' means that win or lose you have absolutely ...


www.lawcomm.co.uk: class="infoquote "Established since 1999 ... It's simply that such a large amount of what we found related to their property side. We then have to spend several paragraphs explaining and providing examples to show why conveyancers will always get an abnormal percentage...


www.apprisels.co.uk: There aren't nearly as many security concerns with a Wills & Probate specialist firm than with those that specialise in other matters such as Property (just seach for 'conveyancing bank details scam' to see how bad it is). So are there any consumer reviews to go on? Ce...


www.mgbelegal.com: class="infoquote "Our lawyers provide clear, simple solutions tailored to your needs."< div> Most law firms will have such statements on their website. But until you've actually used the firm, how can you judge whether this is going to be true? One of the best re...


www.searchbureau.co.uk: Whilst the majority of articles we write are aimed at informing general consumers about legal practices or available resources to help them in their decisions - we do sometimes cover more general topics and firms that help law firms themselves. class="infoquote "We k...


www.mcewanfraserlegal.co.uk: - that's quite a small niggle. There is a huge amount of public reviews about the firm though. Either way www.mcewanfraser.co.uk and www.mcewanfraser.com are also not currently being used. Both in text and with little badges further down the page. The only common issu...


www.masonbullock.co.uk: 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 Solicitors was an unusual situation for us when it came to decidin...


www.reidblack.com: The Law Society of England & Wales also have a much better website than most Law Societies, with a wealth of user-side information. This is a great move because as our poll last year showed, most people don't trust company created testimonial pages anyway. The official s...


www.mtapersonalinjury.com: Most lawyers in the UK are registered with a Law Society. They were not and that's something we absolutely do not do. They can use spoofed or similar looking domain names in their website and email addresses. Even in these modern, internet-based, non-stop-access-wantin...


www.hawklaw.co.uk: As mentioned before though, make sure to read through the comments rather than just flicking through star ratings. Because we spotted a few negative comments that were followed by Hawkridge & Co stating that person was not a client of theirs. This is important to note becaus...


www.33legal.uk: It's basically people doing bland things in front of a camera for about 5-10 seconds. That doesn't just mean length of time though, but actual specialisation in certain case types. It either means business isn't going well and they're trying desperately to drum some up. I wi...


www.stenfield.com: 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. ...


www.jarmanssolicitors.co.uk: Obviously never discuss payment matters via email, and we'll have a last word from the firm: class="infoquote "We think outside the box and punch above our weight to deliver top-notch advice and solutions to any legal issue. It could also mean they've researched what's...


www.aps-legal.com: We could email you from an @amazon.co.uk address right now saying your payments have failed. However, putting everything we've written so far together - it may now be more apparent why we decided APS would be a good firm to both write about and include in the list of recomme...


www.briffa.com: The Briffa Blog on the other hand is written by various members of staff who simply seem to want to comment, point out, or express their opinion about current intellectual property matters. It's an awkward shape and the colours are too pale to display around our site easily....


www.linkilawsolicitors.com: You never know where the next scam might come from though so pay attention to the web address you are on and be aware that it's very easy to fake the "Sender:" box of an email. The internet provides access to information, stats, reviews and so on. Linkilaw Solici...


www.richmondlegalltd.co.uk: To use a description any less than 'expert' would clearly be unwise. 'Jack of all trades, master of none' springs to mind. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 2503 richmond-legal-ltd" check out the page for a firm< a> you can typically see alternative ...


www.awhsolicitors.co.uk: If you click on each person's name you can also see their qualification date and specialist areas. But we've been working with law firms for over 20 years now and can confidently say that any official Lexcel, Law Society or Legal 500 stamp of approval is a good sign . There...


www.otssolicitors.co.uk: There are quite a few ways to check the differences between firms though. One last word from the firm's site: class="infoquote "Our aim is to provide cost-effective legal expertise, with an exceptional level of service, and a genuine service tailored to your indiv...


www.ainakhanlaw.com: We assume this is because this firm handles very personal and distressing cases such as divorce and child custody. As the name is quite unique there shouldn't really be problems like you get with some firms that use generic terms in their names e.g. Member of Law Societ...


www.averywalters.com: This is done for founding dates too to make firms sound far more established than they are. For example, we're obviously praising Avery Walters as a good firm whilst their Google rating only shows 3.3 5 - which doesn't sound great at all. Just something to be mindful of wh...


www.penerley.co.uk: class="infoquote "Our lawyers are experienced in advising and representing clients in varied areas of law, from small matters to complex legal issues."< div> One thing to watch out for when flicking through business services is that some of them are actually ve...


www.driscollkingston.co.uk: It actually reads like a review page from a mainstream review site rather than the blurb on a movie poster: class="infoquote "... They haven't thrown open the gates on their case range though. Things you probably don't care about as a consumer looking to make a basic ...


www.pacificlaw.co.uk: This is an area of law where we do think a specialist firm can be of benefit, the same as with something like Motor Offences. Some are chargable, some aren't, some are really expensive. Versus the other side proclaiming their distate for all things stuffy and blasting a th...


www.seriousinjurylaw.co.uk: It may therefore be a good idea to bookmark the site if you're looking to return just to be sure. Typically if the firm's website does not have 'Serious Catastrophic Injuries' as a specific case title on the front page of their website along with at least one full page abo...


www.bilkusandboyle.com: Another line on their site that probably sticks out to us more than to regular consumers would be: class="infoquote "Our firm provides Legal Aid for a number of services."< div> Since the cuts and changes to Legal Aid over the past couple of decades, the number of...


www.oj-solicitors.co.uk: It is a balancing act though. Many people believe they mean the same thing, but they don't. Quite often you'll see negative ratings with comments that don't even sound as though they are talking about the correct firm. class="infoquote "For personal injury claims and w...


www.aspirelicensing.co.uk: They are therefore not registered with the Law Society of England & Wales or the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). Much more than a firm that only covers a handful of such cases each month as part of their general commercial legal work. You can always hang up and ring b...


www.london-law.co.uk: Top notch work." "I will never forget how much their help saved me from a terrible circumstance. The only other issue we spotted was the web address of www.london-law.co.uk which obviously could result in dozens of possible errors should the person not quite remem...


www.pennchambers.co.uk: help me map out a sensible approach to the divorce negotiations. For all intents and purposes, long establishment claims are mainly a marketing ploy. That may sound odd, however solicitors and barristers are actually two quite different groups. At a very difficult time he re...


www.sbwlaw.co.uk: what's the cost for a 0333 phone number? Unfortunately, far too many prefixes have been released. The sites www.prscully.com and www.patriciascully.co.uk had very different layout and branding (P R Scully & Co Solicitors). Both statements are essentially true. So no matter...


www.thorpewilson.co.uk: The thing to watch out for is firms stating a wide range of specialities across different areas of law such as Divorce, Bankruptcy, Commercial Property, Immigration, etc. Every firm should make this absolutely clear to you early on in your enquiries. For example, the ph...


www.educationlawservice.com: One last point made on the firm's website: class="infoquote "We advise all parents families to take early action, early intervention can be most effective."< div> For some types of legal matter you can have anything from several months to three whole years to addr...

www.pumpcourtchambers.com: Huge numbers of them state they provide their services 'nationally' in the hope of getting as many clients as possible. 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 your case in co...
