Our parent firm has written hundreds of editorial review pieces on law firms around the UK including general practice offices, specialists and non-law firm solutions. You can read about them here:

Farah Family Law: But always pay attention to what site you are on and who is actually emailing you. The obvious comparison is with a solicitor who takes on all sorts of cases but really doesn't know a great deal or have enough experience in any particular one. So don't dismiss any offer to ...


Marsden Rawsthorn Solicitors: If you've scrolled through a dozen or more law firm websites today looking for help with a legal matter, then you may have noticed that many of them sound the same. We've also seen a Criminal Law firm praise for their 'outstanding menu'. So what are people saying about them ...


Garden Stirling Burnet Solicitors Ltd: The firm's official website is www.gsbsolicitors.co.uk however the branding is always the full name of the firm. The Law Society's https: www.lawscot.org.uk find-a-solicitor ?FirmName=Garden+Stirling+Burnet+&FirmPostcode=&AreaOfLaw=&type=firm&sortOrder=" search function< ...


England & Derbyshire LLP: This means that once you enter your details into their website, they will then sell your details on to an actual law firm. As you can see from this snippet from their front page, they use the words "law firm" and "solicitor". That's not actually as easy to answer as you migh...


Nero Legal Ltd: While they can be a bit twitchy sometimes (we've seen Google return reviews for a pizzeria instead of a law firm in the area) you can at least see both negative and positive comments by prior customers to check for any themes. If you've spent the day looking for a law...

MPG Quantity Surveyors Ltd: There does seem to be a mirror of the site on mpg-group.consulting but we would recommend bookmarking the main site if you plan on returning. Often testimonials supplied by the firm are not taken as seriously as those on public review boards. class="infoquote "Since ...


Crockett & Co Solicitors: We also recommend reading actual comments rather than flicking through star ratings when it comes to legal professionals. So what are people saying on those forums? class="infoquote "still helping me to this day" "very professional, helpful and efficient" "made ...


Sarah Rostamlou-Andrews Law: Ideally what people want is a small personal firm, with the resources of a large firm, with a specialism in their particular case. The main points seem to be that a larger firm will have more resources and 'weight', but you might feel as just another case number to them. The...


Cook Legal Ltd: Unlike the Scottish and Irish law societies, the Law Society of England & Wales provide a great user-side database including https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 21690 cook-legal-ltd" each firm's office locations< a>, contact information, areas of law covered, langu...


TWB Probate Solicitors: The SRA's site is not the best laid out though and the search can be difficult to navigate. But there is an area of law with some confusion when it comes to specialisms. Some not always very transparent about what they are providing. The official site is www.twb...


Brodies LLP Solicitors: For example it states Christopher Dun qualified as a solicitor in 1990, Robert Bradshaw in 2003, Andrew Clarke in 2012, right up to Kirstyn Burke in 2022. This is because you may need to add a specific town where an office is located such as 'brodies llp glasgow' or 'brodi...


PCS Legal Ltd: Because property matters have been targeted by scammers more and more in recent years. There is a different firm currently using www.pcslegal.com and there is a PCS Commercial Property and a PCS Property Services company in the UK as well. We've also seen buyers leave...


Dispute Resolver Consultancy: class="infoquote "high level of expertise in resolving difficult and complex matters" "excellent attention to detail" "decisions were received promptly and the final disposition was fair to all parties"< div> A quick note on navigation. There has been ...

Clarkson Wright & Jakes Ltd: There are also mentions of Clarkson Wright & Jakes Notaries. The official website is www.cwj.co.uk and it is HTTPS secure if you want to submit your personal details in their contact form. In particular - property sales clients. One of the great things about the birth of t...


Scotland Injury Solicitors from Baker Hardman: class="infoquote "you will have direct access to your own solicitor who will be available to guide you every step of the way"< div> Again, this is another phrase people might overlook as most assume they will be able to talk to their solicitor about the case at ...


Solidaire Solicitors: It's not always easy with Google. So how do you tell the firms apart when a website is pretty much all you have to go on? Solidaire are a law firm based in Milton Keynes. As you can see they are generally positive. Most solicitors within England & Wales are registere...


Defank Solicitors: There are hundreds of websites out there pretending to look like an official law firm when they are actually simply gathering people's case details to sell on to solicitors. Defank is https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation people 21827 defank-solicitors" ...


QualitySolicitors Large & Gibson: So 'John Doe Solicitors' becomes 'QualitySolicitors John Doe', for example. class="infoquote "Meet your lawyer face-to-face and speak directly to staff familiar with your matter."< div> One of the main reasons we recommend checking out a firm on the law society'...


HCR Legal LLP: One issue people might encounter at the moment is Google has separated the reviews so that you can only view reviews of each individual office. There is no page showing all feedback for the company as a whole. Despite our trust, sometimes things go wrong."< div> ...


Horsley Law: Neither do any of the variants we tried such as www.horsleysolicitors.co.uk If you are going to look around for further information about the firm before making a decision, you'll notice that they are known as Horsley Holdings Ltd on both the Law Society and SRA pages...


All Law Ltd: This way you can see the specialist areas of law and experience years any solicitor has. Their site is HTTPS secure though so you should be able to submit your personal details in any callback form no problem. People have ended up https: www.takefive-stopfraud.org.uk con...


Eve Lake Conveyancing & Legal Services: class="infoquote "Reliable Conveyancing & Legal Services based in the Hope Valley, Derbyshire. Also, while you may have gone through a dozen websites today of 'Conveyancing' firms - not all are the same . Be aware though, in either case, most mortgage lenders w...


Amy King Legal: It's a good sentiment. Because these days are so different and still changing. The concept in TV shows such as Boston Legal where a large established firm's name can strike fear into a company or government agency has never been the case here in the UK. There are other facto...


Heritage Park Family Law Ltd: So when you see Heritage Park offering out of hours appointments - that is something helpful other firms may not be offering. The firm have provided a Frequently Asked Questions section on their site for you to get familiar with the basics before calling and have ht...


McCarthy + Co LLP: But pay attention whether any claims a firm make are actually backed up. Make sure the site is HTTPS secure if you are submitting your personal details via the contact form. class="infoquote "Our conveyancing department combines legal excellence and amazing custom...


Oakwood Solicitors Ltd: But while these terms sound wonderful, they are not really helpful for consumers in their search to tell firms apart. The official website is www.oakwoodsolicitors.co.uk matching the branding which is also very helpful. It's hard to know if a firm is friendly from their webs...


ACSL Solicitors Ltd: We've been working in the legal industry for over 20 years now, just about to celebrate (a loose use of the word) our 25th year in the business. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 469101 a-c-s-l-ltd" check out the page< a> for any firm they will show you al...

Eatons Solicitors: 150 years sounds impressive , certainly. That was even before Covid pushed it further in that direction. class="infoquote "Drawing on 150 years of experience, our expert legal team is uniquely equipped to provide legal protection for a wide range of clients and circ...


WYM Legal Ltd: So what things can be useful? First it should be noted that not all firms stating they deal with Property matters are actual firms of solicitors. class="infoquote "As a CLC accredited conveyancer, the focus of the business is our client’s satisfaction, reduci...


Thomas and Thomas Solicitors Ltd: Then you get companies claiming to be 'a large firm with a small firm feel'. For example 'thomas and thomas solicitors port talbot' will bring up different reviews to another office name while entering no office location at all can end up with you being shown zero reviews....


Wolf Law Solicitors: That seems very unfair to us. class="infoquote "Wolf Law are experts in all kinds of claims, from slips, trips and falls, to road traffic accidents and medical negligence."< div> On navigation please note the official site is www.wolflaw.co.uk with www.wolflaw.c...


SG Murphy Solicitors: Watch out for general themes both positive and negative in the reviews as well. There is an https: murphysolicitors.co.uk expert-articles " expert articles< a> section with various titles such as 'Have you been affected by the PSNI Data Breach' or 'The grounds of divor...


Walker Foster Solicitors: That's a big positive in our opinion. They also have example prices publicly displayed on their website rather than just saying to call for a quote. But the Law Society also provides consumers with detailed information about each company. These are just some ideas on what ...


Harrison's Solicitors: class="infoquote "Harrison's Solicitors know the importance of communication to ensure your transaction runs smoothly from start to finish"< div> Each law and conveyance firm will also likely make a statement such as this regarding how they are great with their...


Girlings Solicitors LLP: But most importantly they list the areas of law covered and qualification dates of each solicitor registered with them. They also https: girlingspersonalinjury.co.uk news.php?page=1" share case studies< a> which for some reason many people find facinating on their own. ...


UVS Law: If there are only 2x people in the firm covering a dozen areas of law - they cannot be 'specialists'. Spouse Fiancee) and Leave to Remain, and Investors such as Innovator Founder and Entrepreneur Visas. UK Immigration Law is governed by the Immigration Act 1971, which has un...

Waterstone Partnership Solicitors Ltd: On top of that we've also seen a criminal law specialist receive a negative review for refusing to take on someone's divorce case, and many firm's getting 5 stars for services they don't provide (such as an amazing pizza). Because although practically every law firm has a w...


Mark Croft Solicitor: However, if you see phrasing such as '20 years of combined experience' or '20 years of experience within the firm' - that means they've added up the experience of all staff members together. But it does have necessary and useful information http: www.mark-croft-solicit...


EMD Law LLP: So what are they saying about this firm on the web? class="infoquote "at the end of the phone most of the time when you need help" "may not be the cheapest solicitors around but you get what you pay for" "explained everything so that we had a good understanding of...
