Want Experienced Opinions from the Industry?

Not enough? Well not to worry. Here are some more of the helpful information articles our staff have drawn together and published on our main 1to1Legal website:

ABS Lawyers Ltd: class="infoquote "The quality and excellence of our services ensure our clients success and maximum compensation is achieved."< div> The Law Society of England & Wales is an excellent online source to check on the actual expertise and experience of a firm or th...

Stenfield Solicitors Ltd: We've also seen anti-capitalist rants copy pasted across a dozen legal professional's review sections. Not to mention that Trustpilot's rating calculations mean that a firm with four 5 star reviews will end up with an average of 3 stars total. However one was by a third part...


Aconveyancing Ltd: made for a very smooth stress free experience" "Always professional and thorough, always prompt in their response."< div> Despite us saying conveyancers get a lot of negative comments, this is always unbalanced because of how people are more likely to jump on the i...


Antony Hodari Legal Services: Antony Hodari himself qualified in 1981, Emma Rees in 2000, right up to Rozina Bibi who qualified in 2017. It will tell you alternative trading names they use, other possibly more local offices to you, languages spoken, speciality case types, and more. So you should get the ...


Assured Probate Services: This particular claim above is made on a few pages we saw including the main page and their About Us section. As far as we're aware their aren't a lot of scams going where people try to get you to write a will leaving everything to a nigerian prince. This is both more helpf...


Allan Argue and Co Solicitors: It was only five years ago that a solicitor said to me 'that internet thing? no, we don't do that'. This splinter naming isn't nearly as prolific amongst other areas of law such as divorce or crime. We've seen conveyancing firms with over a thousand reviews on a single revie...


Aspire Licensing & Administrative Services: They also provide help with courses that will often be required in order to get certain licenses - if you don't have people already with those qualifications. You can always hang up and ring back on the phone number you know is correct to ask about it. Obviously, never disc...


Bilkus and Boyle: The forty years Bilkus Boyle quote is therefore very reasonable and an understandable sort of figure. class="infoquote "Providing quality legal services since 1980"< div> Considering so many firms are quoting histories as far back as the 1800s, this number may ...


BLZ Solicitors Ltd: One tip though is to make sure the free consultation is with a qualified professional. That's something to watch for especially with property matters as scammers contact clients telling them deposits need to be made to different bank accounts. So if they take a few sho...


Catteralls in Wakefield: Most law firms are signed up with a law society whether national, countywide or even city based if there is a large enough population. class="infoquote "very polite and explained everything to us in detail" "Extremely friendly, efficient and courteous at all time...


DFA Law Solicitors: So be careful, and we even recommend never giving bank details to someone that rings you. You can always hang up and call them back on the phone number you know is definitely for the firm. A quick note on navigation. DFA Law on the other hand has both a long establishm...


Deo Volente Legal: Far better than most others we've used. But there are no 200 year old solicitors imparting wisdom. Something you'd like to see in any legal practice you're thinking of using. The idea being that people imagine a 200 year old amount of experience within a firm simply because...


Dylan Nair Ltd Solicitors: But it's really not a negative sign if a law firm you're looking up has few or even zero online comments about them. So much so that when people search for reviews about solicitors but see very few - they could think something was wrong. Nor do any of the hyphentated variant...

Mckie Legal Solicitors Ltd: If you scroll to the bottom of the page you'll usually see a statement like this one. A good resource we always recommend using in conjuction with your search is local law societies. class="infoquote "We have a strong emphasis on client care and providing a friendly ...


Special Education Needs Lawyer: That's still much better of course than charging you full price just for an introductory discussion about whether they can even help you. If you've already been through a dozen law firm's sites today looking for one to help and didn't notice - just try typing a few of thei...


Fair Result Divorce: class="infoquote "We start at the end point. The legal industry is awash with firms boasting 200+ year old histories. class="infoquote "Within 2 weeks of appointment – we will assess the 'Marital Pot' and share the results of our work with you. The on...


Fieldfisher Solicitors LLP: One thing most people agree on is that seeing 'established in 1881' or some such ancient date proudly stamped across a firm's website - no longer provides much sway. Whether they are unbelievably niche in their target area of law or excel in a certain aspect such as custome...


Fultons Estate Agents: Those few extra case types and the conveyancing make up the firm's full case range. If you've read through some of our other review articles you'll probably have noticed that we praise the good amount of publicly available information about law firms in England & Wales versu...


Hawkridge & Co Solicitors: Because nine times out of ten the firm will state they are such without providing any noticeable explanation or links to information about what exactly the award was for. These kinds of things are not automatically given to new firms or anyone that simply signs up to that or...


Hooper Hyde Solicitors: It's very common. As stated above though, for legal services that should not be taken as a negative sign. HooperHyde obviously stood out to us enough for them to become included on our site. At the time of writing we couldn't find any reviews on the regular third part...


Howe and Co Solicitors: So with so many variants such as www.howeandco.com being available and www.howeandco.co.uk being owned by someone else - make sure you're on the right website and never discuss payments or bank details via email . Other companies such as John Howe & Co Solicitors are using ...


Ian Mallon Solicitors Ltd: The firm's website is https secure so you should be fine entering your details into the contact forms. class="infoquote "this company came with good recommendations, very grateful to them for my positive experience through a difficult time" "everything was c...


Jacobs Law Solicitors: So that makes it less helpful in distinguishing between firms when you're weighing up the pros and cons. That's because "established in 2013" can sound ridiculously new to some considering so many solicitors quote centuries-old founding dates. class="infoquote "We prid...


Khan Law Glasgow: That's fair enough. 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. class="infoquote "We fight our client's corner and have done so in many past cases, which i...


Levins Solicitors: We've genuinely seen one firm that stated they were 'continuing a 150 year history in the area' based on the fact they'd moved into a building previously occupied by a much older firm. class="infoquote "For over 30 years now we have continued to build our reputation a...


Lindsays Solicitors Scotland: Whilst many legal practices and other industry companies will boast about their testimonial page, the fact Lindsays' page is not so well boasted doesn't really matter. We've seen much worse though, such as a Criminal Law firm with a negative review for refusing to list...


Linkilaw Solicitors Ltd in London: On this occasion the alternate www.linkilaw.co.uk does not link to the main site. A final word from Linkilaw about their services: class="infoquote "With straight forward and clear-cut advice, we help start-ups and entrepreneurs navigate law to help them succeed."< div...


Mason Bullock Solicitors: That brings us to a quick note about navigation. Mason Bullock don't have a company-made testimonial section on their site either. For example they still linked to the now very defunct Google+ platform and many of the links we clicked on both our desktop and phone browser ma...


McEwan Fraser Legal Scotland: A quick word on navigation. class="infoquote "The service they provide is second to none, particularly the out of hours, 7 days a week availability" "very quick to respond to queries" "positive attitude and always answered our calls and kept us up to d...


MGBe Legal Ltd: The list official recommendations for using MGBe Legal are therefore quite high. The main website is currently www.mgbelegal.com as we've linked to above. If someone calls saying they are from your solicitor and need to discuss payments - you can always hang up and ca...


NV Legal Solicitors: class="infoquote "Your claim will only be handled by a qualified solicitor from day one ... class="infoquote "From the onset of my claim I received updates and advice." "The level of service was excellent." "Not only did they pursue her claim but they ...


OTS Immigration Solicitors: OTS' claims about their extensive media coverage are certainly true. 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 individual, pe...


Pacific Law: We've seen one law firm get a stunning review that ended with the phrase 'best dog-friendly restaurant ever'. However, to state 'pay no attention to this reviewer, they are just a sore loser' has never felt like something they could pull off and look good doing. clas...


Penerley Solicitors: Even helping you register as a limited company is not the sole discretion of lawyers. 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...


Pump Court Chambers Barristers: She really made me feel at ease" "Matthew was on hand at all times and took me through each step of the process" "Very impressed with the service provided by Richard Wayman during an employment tribunal"< div> So make sure you really are happy with the barrist...


RD Costings Ltd: For example most people will want a specialist for Criminal Defence or Motor Offence work. Assisting Victims of Violent Crimes, Domestic and Sexual Abuse."< div> If you've already been through several law firm websites today, you'll probably have noticed that even ...


Reid and Black Solicitors: class="infoquote "We are widely recognised Legal Experts in Claims"< div> Every single legal practice has a website these days with various catchphrases and sales-pitch sentences like this one. In this case, Reid Black do more than just have a-bit-of-expertise in ...


Suhail Ahmad at Richmond Legal: 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>. So a public display (it's actually capitalised on the Richmond Legal w...


Robin Somerville Barrister: Links to pages on official sites such as companies house or the practice solicitor's local law society. If you've read some of our other review articles on firms, this is usually the point where we direct you to various online resources to help research the company in ...


Conveyancing Search Providers: Have they done so? We've found that most companies that service actual law firms tend not to have publicly available reviews about them online. Whilst the majority of articles we write are aimed at informing general consumers about legal practices or available resources to h...


Springle Solicitors: As well as ensuring the advice you get is from a qualified and experienced professional. There are always new laws and taxes coming out year on year. The first port of call we usually recommend to help start telling them apart is The Law Society in your area. Apparently it s...


SR Law Solicitors London: So what we can help with is advice on some ways you can check up on a firm to see if they meet with what you're looking for. So what about the public boards? class="infoquote "He advocated robustly on my behalf and did so with compassion and realism." "They were e...


The Injury Solicitor Salford: No win, no fee and 100% compensation are two very different promises. Whilst it's not mandatory for a law firm or lawyer to register with their local Law Society. But the start date of any law firm is not the same as having experience. class="infoquote "The Injury Sol...


Trust Inheritance Limited: 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. It's important to make sure you're looking at the correct infor...


TSABI Ltd Solicitors: This means that solicitors still choosing to work under Legal Aid typically get paid a lot less than for cases with regular private paying clients. So that's noteable to us. We also recommend that if someone calls you to discuss money, you politely hang up and call back th...
