The people at 1to1Legal have been working in the industry for over 20 years and have worked with hundreds of firms and thousands of solicitors. Here are links to our colleagues unbias comments on firms we know:

A.C.S.L. Solicitors: class="infoquote "We are transparent about our prices – they're all listed here on the website."< div> These sorts of statements are not always placed front and centre, but they are the type of thing to watch for. Most importantly they will show the areas of ...


Amy King Solicitor: However that marketing ploy falls flat quite quickly when you realise there cannot possibly be a 200+ year old solicitor sitting behind a desk somewhere. Most importantly you can see qualification dates. Today's article covers an area of legal services there's probabl...


Baker Hardman Ltd: There is a separate website for the Scottish branch at www.scotlandinjurysolicitors.co.uk which uses the branding of Scotland Injury Solicitors as well. A note on navigation as there are variations to bear in mind. Over the past few decades the number of law firms merg...


Brian Barr Ltd: There is only the one office so a search for their name will usually bring up their site, links to regulatory bodies, company reviews, and so on. One of the problems when trying to find a law firm to help with a case is the similarities between each firm's website. Experienc...


Brodies Solicitors LLP: The firm offers legal advice to private and public sector clients both in the UK and internationally in its core business areas of corporate and commercial; energy (both renewables and oil & gas); real estate; litigation and dispute resolution; banking and financial services...


Cook Law in Wirral: A firm that seems to mention it's connection to the area on every page. People are always quick to post a review of the last pizza place they just ate at. They handled a wide range of services and if you wanted something done, you went down or rang for an appointment. Law ...


Crockett Solicitors: The number of people in the UK that might qualify and the number of case types it applies to is dwindling. A theme of a caring attitude was most prevalent. While not a 100% perfect way to guarantee experience, you can at least see if the solicitor you're talking to has be...


Defank Solicitors Croydon: But you can get a 40-year veteran lawyer from a 1-year old law brand, and a 1-year newbie lawyer from a 200-year old law firm. The firm's official site is www.defanksolicitors.com but www.defanksolicitors.co.uk is not owned by them. class="infoquote "With a dedicated ...


Dispute Resolver Consultancy: Pay attention to the site you're on and always ring the number you have if not sure. This can save considerable court time and therefore legal fees required to complete the case. But it's best to speak to an expert about your specific case to work out which will be the best...

CWJ Solicitors & Notaries: class="infoquote "measured guidance and proactive communicative approach" "efficient, and caring service" "very professional and we were kept fully informed" "professional and very pleasant to work with"< div> The majority of reviews we saw were very posit...


Drummond and Miller Solicitors: That's probably why in our poll a few years back, only 9% of people voted that they trusted prior client comments posted by the company on their site. It's very common for solicitors to use their names with an 'and' in between, but not in this case. The Law Society of Englan...


Eatons Solicitors Ltd: So anything to help people not get misdirected or misled is a plus in our book . The negative reviews are where you find out any themes showing a common issue. Weatherhead and Butcher is a well-known name in Bingley and has been in business since 1995."< div> That's...


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. Originally starting under the name Baily Strickland and Bryant, the firm became Baily Bryant & Dumbleton in 2003, then finally EMD Law...


England & Derbyshire Solicitors: "england" and "derbyshire". That's not actually as easy to answer as you might think. There are alot of law firms to choose from. The SRA is the Solicitors Regulation Authority and you can see - this firm is https: www.sra.org.uk consumers register organisation ?sraNumber=...


Eve Lake Conveyancing: If they are not on your mortgage lender's panel then there could be an extra fee required (at the very least) so it's something to check on before signing on the dotted line with any conveyancer. There are a lot of terms to contend with when searching for help with legal m...


Farah Family Law: One firm in Preston demanded a £5000 retainer before having a consultation. Larger firms with multiple solicitors who each individually specialise in a particular area of law is a stretch, but it's not nearly as misleading as how others have used it. A quick not...


Frei Solicitors Ltd: Because when you target a very small market of individuals with your services, getting feedback publicly can take a lot longer. We know of long established veteran law firms with zero reviews on Google and 1-year startup legal practices with a few dozen comments. This is w...


Girlings Personal Injury Claims Ltd: Today's article focuses on the firm Girlings which has a setup that might seem different and even unusual today, but which was completely common just a decade ago. When searching for information on Google these days you may need to enter a specific location such as 'girli...

Horsley Holdings Ltd: We've long advocated people use this online resource when looking into hiring a legal professional because they provide a wealth of information about each firm's contact details, alternate trading names, languages spoken, and the experience expertise of individual solicito...


Kee Solicitors Family Law: It could mean as little as a 5 minute chat with a trainee solicitor or just a call centre operator with a templated questionnaire over the phone. The firm has its own https: www.keesolicitors.co.uk our-people" staff profile page< a> listing some information and background...


Large & Gibson Solicitors: Many firms provide client testimonials on their website and Large & Gibson do this as well. So 'John Doe Solicitors' becomes 'QualitySolicitors John Doe', for example. Obviously they will not have a 120-year-old solicitor on staff - so that number doesn't help you work out...


Lyons Law: class="infoquote "We have teams of Solicitors and Lawyers based in our 3 offices situated in Westbury on Trym, Kingswood and Chew Magna. That included a small range of firms and often you'd just get a firm's name, address, and phone number to decide whether to give t...


Mark Croft Motor Offence: That's how uncommon it is.

If a firm handles Property sales for example, they will often ha...


McCarthy and Co Solicitors: So the phrase 'award-winning' is not of itself meaningful.

At t...


SG Murphy & Co Ltd: 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 divorce in Northern Ireland' . Other positive things that stood out to us was ...


Nero Legal Solicitors: While it may affect your impression of the firm as a whole - donating money to good causes doesn't improve the chances of actually selling your house or getting a favourable divorce.

Oakwood Property Solicitors: Those were some snippets from the firm's own website where they list several such testimonials. The official website is www.oakwoodsolicitors.co.uk matching the branding which is also very helpful. Modern technology has brought services from across the UK to our fingertips. ...


PCS Legal Conveyancing: Some only act as go-betweens and outsource that work to a separate law firm.

Especially when it comes to property matters where one side is...


Landlord Eviction Solicitor in Southport, Lancs: There are huge numbers of firms proving legal services with only paralegals on staff. They want the veteran 'loophole finder' in their corner (despite the fact that is rarely how people get out of speeding tickets). But most people never take them at their word and will alwa...


Solidaire Law Ltd: 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. But if we entered "solidaire luton" the correct firm showed up because Google still have the firm registered to their old address....

Thomas & Thomas Solicitors: Most preferred the public boards such as Google, Facebook, Trustpilot, etc. However this is something you can actually check up on if the firm is registered with their Law Society.

TWB Probate Solicitors Ltd: As you can see from https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 2235 twbprobatesolicitors-limited" the page on this firm< a> - solicitor Howard Brown has been a qualified solicitor since 1984.

UVS Law Ltd: You could end up with a 1-year qualified solicitor from a 50-year established firm, or a 40-year veteran lawyer from a brand new law office. There are firms which will state they 'specialise' in a wide range of legal matters including immigration. It's often easy to c...


Walker Foster Ltd: For an example today we'll use the firm Walker Foster who describe themselves as: class="infoquote "... But hopefully the information we provide is helpful generally. The thing to watch for is whether that helps you distinguish one firm from another. You can't see...


Waterstone PS: However in our poll a few years back only 8% of you said you https: consumer.ftc.gov consumer-alerts 2022 09 should-we-trust-online-reviews" trusted such pages< a> on company sites anyway. So how old the firm's logo really doesn't help you know how experienced the actual ...


Wolf Law Ltd: The site is https secure for submitting your personal details via the contact form. It sounds great, but if you think about it there won't be a single firm that claims to be 'nonsense spouting', 'dishonest', or 'uncaring'. Wolf Law don't make any such claims which is a go...


WYM Legal Solicitors: We've often praised The Law Society of England & Wales for its excellent user side offering. If you've trawled through even just a handful of law firm websites today looking for one that stands out to you, you'll have noticed most have the same language and images. Bu...


Law Solicitors: If you see a website claiming 'established in 1881' or ancient founding dates - that's obviously meant to give the impression that the firm is well-established with lots of experience . Their site is HTTPS secure though so you should be able to submit your personal detail...
