NJS Law Ltd: If you visit the NJS Law website it may look exactly like a dozen other law firm sites you've visited today. Around 90% of the articles on this site are about firm's who are not current advertisers or paying us anything. 'Experience' length of times can also be...
Cullimore Dutton Solicitors: We don't typically give direct advice in these articles, but we feel safe saying you can pretty much ignore ancient foundation date claims. Not so many firms are forthcoming with such details, especially those trying to disguise their levels of experience. So they are invo...
The Law Partnership Solicitors: Always read the comments. Some of the largest conveyancing companies in the UK handling hundreds of transactions a month have star ratings in the 3s. That could still be a 'specialist' firm if each solicitor is expert in each case type. 'Divide the number of case types by t...
Wilford Smith Solicitors: However other companies may use clever wording to try and make their claims seem bigger than they are. compared to testimonials provided by the company themselves. 'Wilford Smith & Co' simply seems to be an older name still dotted around, not a different practice. First, a q...
Foster & Coleman Ltd: The official website for this firm is www.fosterandcoleman.com and currently www.fosterandcoleman.co.uk does not redirect you. If you look up https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 630363 foster-coleman-limited" the page for any firm< a> you'll see other names they mi...
Wildcat Law Ltd: So such statements don't really help you distinguish one firm from another. Always make sure you're on the correct site and never be afraid to call up the firm if you're unsure about anything. However if you think about it no firm is ever going to claim to be the opposite - ...
LS Legal Solicitors Ltd: This isn't as much of a problem on this occasion due to the case range covered by the firm. So what are the independent forums saying?
class="infoquote "highly professional and super helpful"
"professional and approachable, explaining anything I wasn’t sure abo...
A City Law Firm Ltd:
class="infoquote "We can be flexible with our fee structure and will consider different models for different clients."< div>

Buchanan & Co Solicitors: However every firm we add to our network goes through various checks which we often write about, because much of the things we do can be helpful for any potential client in their search. Sometimes for something as simple as an official-looking email saying the bank details h...
Goldsmith Bowers Solicitors:
class="infoquote "Our team of industry experts have been brought together to create a client focused business which understands our clients' individual needs"< div>

WH Solicitors:
class="infoquote "We're flexible with our fees with most cases – our fees are competitive and you will know in advance of what the fees will be."< div>
This is mostly important to remember due to the https: support.microsoft.com en-us windows protect-yourse...
Two Harcourt Buildings: No firm is going to claim it is archaic, inefficient, and unfriendly.
However before we get into that, we should probably share the opening line of this particular chambers' website. Not least because they provide very little data on firms and a search function that is...
MJV & Co Solicitors Ltd: If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 595126 mjv-co-solicitors-ltd" check out the page< a> for this firm you'll be able to see any alternative business names they use, their specialist areas of law, alternative contact details, and the qualification dates of e...
Bridge McFarland LLP: Not least so because it means they are registered with The Law Society of England & Wales which we have long praised as an excellent user resource for background checking law practices.
There is also a huge difference between a firm that claims to have 40 years of ...
Woodstock Legal Services: So which claims and imagery should you look for?
class="infoquote "our lawyers are recognised nationally for their wealth of specialist expertise and knowledge"< div>
For people in England and Wales they are lucky to have The Law Society there provide a huge amoun...
Stephanie Heijdra: As they do not work as a team that doesn't really help you as a client know much about how your case might potentially be handled. This is because a solicitor will often have to hire a barrister to do certain types of court work. We try to make sure you know about the differ...
Summerfield Browne Solicitors:
For many the term 'Solicitor' still brings up the image of an old building in the centre of town and old men in old dusty wigs.
class="infoquote "We are a modern and progressive law firm, and operate a new legal services business model"< div>
Unfortunatel...
Thaxted Legal Ltd: You never know what scammers will think of next.. And then less than three weeks later, I received the new visa"
"followed the processes up to date and warned about the deadlines"< div>
These are just a few snippets from various reviews left but still provide a pret...
Smith and Graham Solicitors: So the fact Smith and Graham solicitors have a wide range of seasoned professionals alongside fresh blood is something much more of note. So if things have gone bad, it hasn't affected their outward image.
Smith and Graham have 'Team' pages with profiles of their st...
Brown and Co Solicitors:
A quick note on navigation due to the number of firms out there with 'brown' in the name.
Obviously we have checked out Brown & Co and ended up adding them to our list of firms so we must have had a positive experience . So what are people saying about the fi...
Mackenzie Jones Solicitor: Always make sure you are on the correct website and never discuss payments or bank details via email. A team of seasoned heads but with fresh legs is surely the best grouping you could hope for in an industry that is also struggling to balance between the old and new. Th...
Hill House Chambers: At the moment there are only names and the year the person qualified as a barrister. But it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the scam of ' https: www.ncsc.gov.uk guidance phishing" phishing< a>' and maybe read a few articles about https: www.takefive-stopfraud....
Stowe Family Law: It is important you are comfortable with your solicitor; you feel they understand your legal needs and, just as importantly, the emotional aspects of your situation."< div>
Obviously we are already in favour of Stowe Family Law because we list their services on this we...
Rose Fendlen Law: In this example these are all types of litigation matter. We've covered the differences between the various types of litigation funding fees cost reclaiming in other articles but the short version is that '100% compensation' and 'no win no fee' are not the same thing. Employ...
Bell Lax Solicitors: The problem though, is that not all firms are talking about the same thing.
class="infoquote "Are Drunken Contracts Binding?"< div>
They have a real news section. For example Richard Kerry qualified in 1993, Natalie Bradshaw in 2009, Saira Walji in 2017, right up...
JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd: We love case studies, but originally thought this was simply because we've been working in the industry for over twenty years.

The Legal Practice Ltd: Reading negative reviews may not always put someone off using a firm unless there is a clear theme. This firm https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 453772 the-legal-practice-ltd" is registered with< a> The Law Society of England & Wales which is wonderful because out...
Youngs Solicitors: They list related trading names, all office locations, languanges spoken, case types handled, and even the years qualified and areas of law targeted by each individual solicitor within a firm. We've even seen negative reviews by the clients on the opposite side of a sale pur...
Lefevres Law: But it certainly sounds impressive and from such a reputable, reliable source it's probably safe to assume it is so. You can end up hiring a 40-year-guru lawyer from a law practice that set up 6 months ago. So here are a few snippets from them:
class="infoquote "took...
David Stinson & Co: The main difference between firms on the matter of fees is how they reclaim their own costs should the case win or lose. A lawyer who is expert in one can usually handle any of the others just as well. The latter means that you have nothing to pay whether your case wins o...
Cooks Solicitors:
Put simply, if a firm is doing really badly or has a bad reputation in a local area - then the branding will be changed. Unlike other services such as hairdressers, restaurants, or car washes - conveyance providers always end up getting at least some negative reviews ...
Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd: But we always recommend reading actual comments rather than relying on simple star ratings when it comes to law firms. Entering such will bring up an error or redirect you elsewhere depending on what browser you are using. Often after a specific feedback form has been filled...
My Law Matters: That's probably why only 8% of you voted last year that you took company website testimonials into consideration when evaluating a service provider. Most of you wanted to see independent review boards that also contain negative reviews. The client then handed tens of thous...
Frazer Coogans Ltd: Sadly, that is very rare . 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. So, does Frazer Coogans Solicitors provide clarification?

OneLaw Chambers:
For example, the creation of 'no win, no fee' arrangements for litigation matters such as personal injury, medical negligence, housing disrepair, and so on. It also provides the qualification dates and specialties of each legal professional within a firm.

Beers LLP: However, we ran a poll last year and only 8% of you responded that you trust company provided testimonials.
Unfortunately that needed to be said because there isn't much negative about Beers LLP for us to focus on. The reason you need to be aware of potential issues is ...
DisrepairClaim.co.uk: There are plenty of things we might change about the legal industry, but all in all - CMCs still have a place in it just as much as search engines, directories, and even small local referral setups like ours in order to get people legal help.
. In fact, solicitors themsel...
Simper Law Ltd:
class="infoquote "Between them, our solicitors have around 50 years' experience in law, and are passionate about working with all types of clients, both personal and commercial."< div>
Most law firms will make a claim about the amount of years experience within t...
Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors: They are far less likely to rush and publicly talk about their messy divorce, bankruptcy, or life-long brain injury. Normally you will be asked to sign an insurance document to cover the costs of your case. Please be aware though that reviews for law firms are very different...
ULA Solicitors Ltd: Ever since the '90s the government has been stripping away what Legal Aid covers and the amount a solicitor can earn under it's scheme. We didn't have to search through the small print to find out. If you've read any of our other articles you'll have noticed that we often ha...
Taylor Price Solicitors:
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. Two, this also seems to be valid for their whole case range. TaylorPrice Solicitors https: t...
Michael Leighton Jones: New tech companies, car makers, or even a new local bakery would never be thought of as worse for not being 200 year's old. 'living in the past', 'unfriendly', and 'inefficient'). For example, we did see one negative review about this firm on Google where the person gave one...
Milners Solicitors: From the information we've seen that's not the case for Milners Solicitors .
