Over the past 20 years we've written hundreds of articles about the legal industry. Here are a selection about individual firms. Whilst we obviously have not used all of their services, we have worked with many of them and can point out general tips for researching which firm to use and what questions to ask:

ACS Accident Claims Scotland Review: We would investigate any accident, sort out ATE insurance (legal cost coverage), and various other things we thought were necessary before passing someone on. 'accident', 'claims', and 'scotland') Google might mess you about when searching for them. For many other case types...


Almond Solicitors Review: Greg is a specialist personal injury solicitor with many years of experience working both sides of the fence for claimants and defendants alike. If you have a difficult case - there will be one with enough experience to handle it wisely. If you prefer face to face discussion...


Amnesty Solicitors Ltd Review: They were married in Scotland but chose to live the first 5-6 years in the USA. I will come back and update as time goes on though. Obviously Amnesty Solicitors are a specialist firm like many others we've been seeking out recently. There's certainly plenty of room at t...


Ashmans Solicitors Review: It's that overall impression that's we're looking to convey rather than simply providing a list of facts. Ashmans Solicitors, however, is unique. on the Family Law page is listed issues such as Divorce and Separation, Occupation Orders, Forced Marriage Protection Order...


Ashworth Motoring Law Review: That means that every client of theirs that pleaded 'not guilty', has been found 'not guilty'. They have also commented on the BBC, Channel 5 and other media outlets programs. Wherever you are in England or Wales, their motoring law solicitors are on hand 24 7 and believe t...


Atkinson Rose LLP Review: It also states his color="green "... holds degrees in biomedical science, law and employment law" < font> not to mention his color="green "...charity work representing victims of human trafficking and slavery ..." < font> The other staff described on the website's ...


Auto Logistic Solutions Ltd Review: Neither the www.autologistic.com version or the full name www.autologisticsolutions.co.uk www.autologisticsolutions.com versions have actual websites on them. Sorting out car hire yourself is costly, and often people will opt for the cheapest car despite their family situa...

White Collar Legal Review: The list of services offered is quite extensive considering, offering help with financial mis-selling, landlord tenant disputes, personal injury, wills, etc. Some firms definitely try too hard to be trendy whilst others almost regress, focusing on their 200+ year histo...


Balfour+Manson LLP Review: So www.balfour+manson.co.uk or www.balfour&manson.co.uk will never work. I had no idea! They are also listed on the http: www.disabilityscot.org.uk rec-detail ?rec=390" Disability Scotland< a> information website. Their expertise in private client and family law work...


Barrister-Direct Limited Review: They in turn will then often approach Barristers for advice and representation if your case proceeds to Court. Barrister-Direct Limited has taken advantage of regulatory changes in the market, which allow Barristers to act for clients directly on a litigation basis. The...


Blain Boland & Co Review: However, the firm's website states the brand goes right back to 1979 where it apparently took over from another local firm - G E Taylor & Sons. A ten-year-old hairdressing or photography studio on the high street could easily be considered a long established business. we're ...


BMD Law Solicitors Review: They apparently have a calculator on their site, but we couldn't find it during this review check. They quote the national average turnaround time on properties completing being 12 weeks, and their average as only 5 weeks. Can they blend the old stalwart law firm peace of mi...


Brearleys Solicitors Review: The newer testimonials near the top of the page are undated, but few provide any extra insight into the firm beyond the usual "very happy" type sentiments. For legal issues, often discussing personal matters - doubly so. These are pages on a website that state staff member n...


Briffa Legal Ltd Review: "commercials". They also seem to have had prior lives and professions where Intellectual Property protection would have been important to them personally. To top it off, they have a wide range of case studies on their site. Most people won't bother clicking the 'Blog' l...


CBTRL Review: All of a sudden, we could see a lot of solicitors clambering for experts in psychological trauma to boost the 'value' of the claim they are processing to ensure it passes the required minimum. This field of psychological trauma has always been relevant, but we're posit...


CFG Law Review: It suddenly occurred to us that we already have a 'poster-firm' on our network for all the things we're trying to promote. A photo, some history and details of expertise go a long way to instilling trust in a firm. Be aware that www.cfg.co.uk and www.cfg.com both are differe...


Claims Funding UK Review: First, that you cannot apply for case funding if you plan on representing yourself - you have to use a solicitor. Just to be sure you end up back at the right place though, make sure to bookmark the site after following any of the links on our page.. This usually takes aroun...


CSL Law Ltd Review: As the head of the firm, Clive Lawrance specialises in Family Law and: class="infoquote "... Impressively their FAQs section is not a list of fake questions designed to allow them extra paragraphs stating how great they are. Hopefully this should also point out t...


Cubism Law Solicitors Review: They joined our panel some years ago, and have grown steadily since. At first glance, we're not sure whether the questions being asked really give you much insight into the company and or services. It's not just banks that have phishing problems.. We all find our inspiration...


Countrywide Conveyancing Services Review: There's also www.cwconveyancing.co.uk and others, not to mention all the extra individual brands amongst their portfolio. We believe it's mostly because of the media coverage initially coming out against the idea, dubbing it "Tesco Law" because it allowed non-solicitors to o...


Davey Law Review: Their staff even look all http: www.daveylaw.co.uk our-people" solicitor-y< a>, with a clear balance of ages and genders. They have the usual spread of social media profiles for you to interact with too. The firm's director, Peter Davies, has 35 years invested in the firm...


Driscoll Kingston Review: the longest length one of their solicitors has been qualified). It's all in the wording. But the fact it's not simply a pile of extra sales pitches disguised as articles - speaks volumes. Over the past 20+ years of writing about law firms I've come to realise you can tell a...


DSL UK Debt Collection Review: However, times are changing. This allows businesses to check the up to date credit score of their customers to help keep that cash flow intact. Usually, by ten years in, the directors of any successful firm are taking 'meetings' around the country and 'research missions' abr...


Edward Hands & Lewis Solicitors Review: There is just the one web address, so please bookmark it once you're on there. Can law firms straddle the line between stalwart and modern? For Edward Hands & Lewis, we'll start with a 'do they have history' question. In 2012 they received the Business of the Year Award...


FamLegal Family Legal Solicitors Review: Where it is possible they always endeavour to help clients to resolve their issues away from court, by way of negotiation, mediation or roundtable meetings. She was thorough and methodical in her approach and was very supportive throughout the court process. The firm c...


Hartley Bain Solicitors Review: Because in this instance, the person will have been asked for this at the conclusion of their case which makes it highly unlikely that the testimonial was incentivised (such as you might find on product sales sites). There only seems to be one Hartley Bain solicitors sh...


Helix Law Ltd Review: Recently we've started seeking out more specialist firms to try and save people the hassle of phoning a firm that says they do personal injury, only to find out they don't do 'that' kind of injury. Typically if there are grammatical errors and spelling mistakes - the reviews...

Leech & Co Review: class="infoquote "We are a boutique firm of committed, compassionate and friendly private client Solicitors providing expert, high-quality legal services to our clients. We link to the official site above which uses the secure https setup. for people who have to confr...


HJA Solicitors Review: Despite this, HJA https: www.hja.net events access-justice-pursuing-career-legal-aid " actively encourages< a> other lawyers to get involved. We did spot others too, such as www.hjallenllp.com which seems to be simply a duplicate of the main site. There are several possib...


Huneewoth Solicitors Review: We usually check the previous 4 years of complaints. This is important because if they have only stated Criminal Law in the Law Society record as an area of practice, but have twenty other case type names on their website - it may be that they are brand new to each of those ...


IWC Probate & Will Services Review: 2002 is a decent enough time for any firm to build up expertise, local contacts, and refine a system to be faster, more efficient and more importantly - cost effective . That's a big deal. Adding IWC Estate Planning & Management Ltd to our list of recommended firms was real...


Jackson Lees Group Review: Thank you for your time and care over this house sale. However, there doesn't seem to be a testimonial page on the new site. What happened to poor old 'Canter'? We don't know. As before, the www.jacksonlees.com version also redirects to the UK address. For commercial clients...


Jefferies Solicitors Ltd Review: Jefferies have installed an online calculator on their website for people to see estimates of their potential compensation for things such as lost deposits, hire cars, hotel charges, plus the impact of more personal problems associated with delayed flights. They've also...


Joanna Connolly Solicitors Review: When you visit their website, you'll also notice a real focus on clear, flexible pricing structures. That last one is quite important. Whilst many firms offer no win no fee and 100% compensation guarantees for things such as personal injury - the same is not always offered ...


Kings Court Trust Ltd Review: This will offer a fixed-fee service, based on the amount of work required, with the bill clearly shown upfront during a no-obligation meeting."< div> Kings Court Trust was the third alternative business structure licensed by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC), ...


Kings View Chambers Review: They state other selling points too such as a 24 7 helpline , teleconferencing availability, and being experts in their respective fields. Whilst the firm's two barristers, Stephen McCaffrey and Catherine Stock, have over 20 year's experience between them - there's ...


KTP Solicitors Review: For other case types, they do their best to offer fixed prices. Obviously this is just advice. A lot of solicitors do this, for many reasons. They are not offering to run the case for free should you decide to engage them. For cases they offer the usual no win, no fee f...


Lambertpugh LLP Solicitors Review: (No, that's not a real word.) Anyway, enough about their site. For either commercial or residential - you really need to get on the phone to discuss your needs and get a quote. he and his team apparently have plenty of experience to call on get the job done. Including: ...


Law In Cornwall Review: They are Truro-based Solicitors serving clients with legal advice, civil & commercial litigation across Cornwall. They also cover the regular range of personal injury compensation claims available. "Law in Cornwall" is a branding trading name for Cubism Ltd. They strive to o...


MacLachlan Solicitors Ltd Review: One thing you might not have considered as a positive point, or even noticed, is the fact Maclachlans have a very unusual case range. However quite often this number is gained from adding all the staff's experience together (e.g. This too is nicely honest thoug...


Mancini Legal Ltd Review: So what do Mancini say on their site: class="infoquote "... The five registered solicitors at Mancini Legal have a combined total of 112 years experience. About half way down the page on Wills, it states that they are part of Will Aid. This is where some days are set...


Marcus Andreen Business Law Review: Marcus Andreen is a solicitor for commercial and IT law. Prior to that he worked in legal roles for Mobile Systems International Limited (MSI), and Synon.. As a commercial lawyer with more than 20 years’ experience providing legal support to companies and individuals - his c...


McShanes Solicitors Review: But with such a wide case range, it would probably be worth asking about your legal issue over the phone even if you don't see a case title that matches exactly. McShanes are widely recognised as a leading residential property solicitor in Northern Ireland. Unusually fo...


Meresbrook Pollard Solicitors Review: However, it is not uncommon for firms that claim to be locally-minded to not actually cover case types that require them to work with local people at all. But whilst the two main solicitors of the firm have a combined history of 20 years, and whilst Meresbrook Pollard has be...


Murray Hay Solicitors Review: It's been a long time since I've seen a solicitor strike a balance between professional visuals, enough but not too much content, and a friendly feel that doesn't require photos of everyone in a pub. We'll come back to the content later, but first some background: ...


Qdos Legal Services Ltd Review: A mouthful? Well, whether those contracts deal with employees, customers, suppliers, terms & conditions, or regular residential tenancy agreements - the right language and a bespoke contract is often key. When we were searching the web, we saw some negative reviews by indivi...


RG Solicitors Review: Usually, there are a dozen or so statements printed on a page. Many things still have to be done by post or fax. Yes, there is a peppering of marketing jargon - but each phrase is given context somewhere. Many laws that the firms have to work with are ancient and often compl...


RJ Gill Solicitors Review: But without the accompanying catchphrase of "100% compensation", that may not be true. Whilst you may not have to pay fees if your case fails, you could end up paying out 25% of your compensation to the law firm handling your case. Their Skelmersdale office lies just around ...


Robson & Co Solicitors Review: Team - we're impressed. Those are the three that stood out and which we feel give you a good overview of how the company is set up and the type of people experience you can expect to be helping you out and backing you up. A word on browsing: we've noticed a lot of...


RSR Law Ltd Review: Timescale. The quirks and matching ideals didn't hurt either. Our regular section on navigation will be longer than usual for this piece though. In some cases we may charge a small fee if further investigation is required, before a no win no fee agreement can be entered...


SBW Law Ltd Review: However the idea that a 200 year old firm has ten times the knowledge or experience than a 20 year old firm - is obviously nonsense. No firm is ever going to state they are 'cold' or 'unfriendly'. A quick note on navigation as always. But there are some statements whic...


Taylor Rose MW Solicitors Review: They have a standard central office chain going on, but also a network of branded independent consultancies. Taylor Rose MW actually started off as a bit of a conundrum for us. simply doesn't happen much these days when the general aim is to get people to pick up the ...


Taylor Bracewell Review: She has over 25 years experience and a track record of success that is bolstered by her team of competent and experienced family law practitioners. Sometimes, it can be as awful as a son convincing his confused mother to sign over her car and house to him so that he can 'kee...


The Johnson Partnership Review: So why do we recommend people to The Johnson Partnership? Because the staff here at 1to1Legal have all worked in various sections of the legal industry. This is the kind of contact you'll probably not want to be faffing around trying to find details for when the time...


Thompsons Solicitors Scotland Review: We only ever take on a case if we think it has a reasonable prospect of success and we win over 90% of our court cases, each week recovering over £1 million for our clients."< div> However Thompsons back up these claims within easy the reach of the reader rather t...
