Amy King Solicitor: It is HTTPS secure for submitting your personal details via the contact form. (Yes, even law firms use sneaky marketing tricks.) Is experience the only driving factor in choosing a solicitor? Of course not. Certainly when confronted with a very friendly 5-year expe...


Baker Hardman Ltd: Our 1to1Legal website never asks you for your personal details and does not sell your information on. There were several negative comments left but they were difficult to get a grip on. However, some firms employ paralegals to do most of the work and interact with the client...


Brian Barr Ltd: The reason people prefer the public boards such as Google, Trustpilot, Facebook, etc. Many use similar wording, similar images, and make similar claims. The majority of English and Welsh firms are listed on the site so it's a simple and quick way to check if the firm ...

EMD Law Solicitors: We've also seen some search results for this firm under 'Hastings' and 'Maidstone' as those are much larger cities near their offices. There are always different options available and sometimes you don't necessarily need a solicitor. class="infoquote "At EMD Law we ha...


England & Derbyshire Solicitors: There are hundreds of websites set up to look like they provide law-related services, but they may just be a "case reseller".

Girlings Personal Injury Claims Ltd: Be aware that www.girlings.co.uk is a totally different firm doing Lettings. Obviously the first point of call for most people are the review boards such as Google, Facebook, Trustpilot, etc. The first only guarantees that you won't have to pay anything if your case lo...


Garden Stirling Burnet: The firm does offer testimonials across their website. There is a firm showing up as GSB Properties in our background searches but that seems to be the old name for this same firm. Our article today is on the Property firm Garden Stirling Burnet: class="infoquo...

Horsley Holdings Ltd: We've often said that it's better to have a 40 year experienced lawyer working for a firm that's only been going for 1 year versus a 1 year experience lawyer working for a firm claiming 'established in 1881' or other ancient founding date. Both list that the firm trades un...


Kee Solicitors Family Law: The only commonly found law firms that specialised in such a small niche were Criminal Law firms and still to this day everyone always looks up for a tried and tested veteran lawyer when they're trying to avoid having more points put on their license.

Large & Gibson Solicitors: People simply aren't as quick to discuss their divorce, criminal proceeding, or child custody battle in a review forum. Not QS as a whole.

Lyons Law: Worse than this are the firms that claim ancient founding dates such as 'established in 1881'. These are absolutely meaningless statements and often tenuously connected. However, despite it looking slightly odd for a law firm to claim it specialises and then rattle of...


Mark Croft Motor Offence: There is not going to be some 200+ year old solicitor within the firm monitoring everything. Because if you've already flicked through a few dozen legal service websites today, you'll have noticed that many use the same wording, make the same promises, and even used practica...

McCarthy and Co Solicitors: One thing to bear in mind though is that while many firms claim to be award winning - not all of them seem to clarify which award that is.

Wolf Law Ltd: So the information doesn't actually help you separate this firm from the thousands of others you could use. Fresh eyes in wise heads? Either way such checks can be a useful metric when deciding which firm to you use. However, if the second firm only gets you half the compe...


WYM Legal Solicitors: But also covers the qualification dates and areas of expertise of each solicitor in the firm. But 'leading' without stating what you are leading in or in what area - not so much. That's because conveyancing is one of the services where people are usually upset about somethin...


Law Solicitors: However, there are no 200-year old lawyers out there waiting to take your case. So you need to pay attention to the websites you are on and the emails you receive. Most importantly it will tell you the qualification dates of any legal professionals within the practice...
