Two Harcourt Buildings Chambers - 2HB Barristers in London: So whilst The Direct Access scheme is a major, massive, and immensely helpful shake up to the legal system allowing members of the public to deal direct with their representation rather than paying a solicitor to be a go-between - there is still a long way to go. Hopefully...


ABS Lawyers Ltd Solicitors in Corby & Maghull, Liverpool: For example legal matters such as a wills or debt recovery or bankruptcy don't always result in a solicitor as being your best first point of contact. ABS's 85 years though certainly could be a good indication of real, seasoned professionals available within the compan...


Antony Hodari Solicitors Housing Disrepair Specialists in Manchester: class="infoquote "Our solicitors will keep you up to date with the progress of your claim throughout and will answer any questions you may have about the claims process."< div> Another thing people always check on are the public reviews in places such as Google, T...


Argue & Co Legal - Allan Argue Personal Injury Solicitor in Glasgow: You can read an article here where we cover the 'why' on that one. So it would seem that both experience and expertise are with this particular firm. Having to relay details of your accident and injuries to a more-secretarial staff member can feel a little like having to exp...


Beers LLP - Solicitors in Kingsbridge & Plymouth, Devon: A quick note on navigation as whilst the firm's name is quite unique, it could potentially peek a little into generic term issues. A lot of comments about friendliness and speed. If you've read through any of our other law firm cover articles, you'll hopefully know that...


Bell Lax Ltd - Solicitors in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham: For example Richard Kerry qualified in 1993, Natalie Bradshaw in 2009, Saira Walji in 2017, right up to Wioleta Dworak who qualified as a solicitor just in 2020. In fact for most of them no comments were left at all - just a low star rating which we always think is just plai...


Bilkus and Boyle Solicitors & Estate Agents in Glasgow: So where else can you search? class="infoquote "... Be aware that no genuine web address can have an ampersand such as www.bilkus&boyle.com and none of the name-only variants such as www.bilkusboyle.com or the .co.uk's seem to be owned by anyone. They may very well ass...

Branch Austin McCormick LLP Solicitors in Mayfair, London: For example, at the time of writing the firm lists Steven Gardner who qualified as a solicitor back in 1970, Tania Austin (qualified in 1984), Harender Branch (1999), Hal Branch (2001), Elliot Hammer (2014), right up to Sheida Zeinali who qualified in 2021. We have always en...


Bridge McFarland LLP - Solicitors in Grimsby, Hull, Lincoln, Louth, and Market Rasen: Unfortunately every firm that deals with property will have such negative reviews.

Brown & Co Solicitors in Greenwich, London: Here are some of the resources we use that you might not have known about or things to watch for you might not have thought about.

Catteralls Solicitors in Wakefield: Spending all day on the phone repeating the same (often upsetting) story to several solicitors is not ideal. More importantly, which solicitors are actually well established with experience in your matter. Potential clients tend to rely more on the independent public offer...


CEL Solicitors in Liverpool - Housing Disrepair, Knotweed, & Data Breach Claims: Again, no firm is going to claim to be the alternative of any of those.

Cooks Solicitors in Newcastle under Lyme & Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire: On the whole they are very positive but there were some negative comments as well. The experience levels of the solicitor running your case is the most crucial number out of the two. But if you would like to look up the individual experience and expertise of a solicitor wi...


David Stinson & Co Personal Injury Solicitors in Aylesford, Kent: The first means you will have nothing to pay should your case lose. In fact, you should never be charged any fees either up front or during the case. On this occasion it seems that both are true because certainly the brand name is based on the titular solicitor working...


DisrepairClaim.co.uk - Housing Disrepair Claims Company based in Brighouse, West Yorkshire: We've talked a lot before about 'specialist' law firms. To sum up, working with a CMC is an aberration for us but we wouldn't do it unless we thought it would help people. for damaged belongings, such as clothes and electrical equipment ... Most of the time unregu...


DV Solicitors (Deo Volente Legal LLP) Law Firm in Bedford & Luton: class="infoquote "Deo Volente have been providing personalised, pragmatic services to a diverse portfolio of clients for over 7 years."< div> DV Solicitors came up as a good firm to be added to our database because at the time we were searching for firms that co...

Frazer Coogans Ltd - Solicitors in Ayr, Prestwick & Glasgow: class="infoquote "The office has full disabled access."< div> Again, this may sound like a regular statement but you'd be surprised how many firms in older buildings are not able to say this.

Fulton's Solicitors & Estate Agents in Clarkston & Mount Florida, Glasgow: 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 versus those in Scotland.

Hawkridge & Company - Hawk Law Solicitors in Gillingham, Medway: Ampersands can't be in domain names so certainly you can't go to something like www.hawkridge&co.co.uk but all the other variants we checked such as www.hawkridge.co.uk or www.hawkridgeandco.co.uk were also owned by other firms. No unsubstantiated claims, just clear examples...


Hill House Chambers - Barristers Based in London: That's still very useful information though and something people typicaly want to know yet can't find out when it comes to barristers.

We currently showcase the regular high-street-style solicitors people have come to expect, as well as some alternative services that act as an in-house legal team of their own.

Jacobs Law Solicitors: So for Jacobs to be unafraid in posting such a "new" start date in the face of such an "old" industry - well that really stands out to us as genuinely being a modern day law office. A different firm we reviewed yesterday had several online complaints about spending mos...


JPS Walker Solicitors Ltd in Manchester: class="infoquote "I would just like to thank you for all your efforts in getting my claim settled."

KRS Estate Planning Ltd - Will & Probate Advice in Leicester: The Direct Access scheme allows members of the public to hire barristers themselves rather than having to pay a solicitor who would then hire one for certain types of court work.

Lefevres Law Firm - Litigation Solicitors in Edinburgh, Glasgow & Aberdeen: None of the expected typos such as www.lefevre.law seemed to be owned by anyone just now either.

Simper Law Ltd - Solicitors in Norwich & Great Yarmouth: This is showcased by the number of law firms still boasting ancient founding dates such as 'established in 1771' as if having an ancient brand name above the door makes a difference to the services provided.

Smith and Graham Solicitors in Hartlepool, Peterlee and Middlesbrough: As we only review the legal industry and it's professionals from our experience working with them over the past 20 years - that's the only thing we can comment on.
