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: Certainly whenever someone gets a speeding ticket they don't look up for a general law practice. www.acs.co.uk and www.acs.com are two totally different IT companies. There are several law firms that have pages with the title accident claims in scotland . But from 1999 to 2...


Almond Solicitors Review: Knowing the kind of experience, expertise and focus the people at a firm have can really help when deciding which firm to use. A short word on browsing - the web address www.almondsolicitors.co.uk will direct you through to a website hosted on a www.nationalsolicitors.c...


Amnesty Solicitors Ltd Review: Although both the firm and I have some other, quite different, reasons for setting Amnesty apart as something better than average. Yes - it is the exact same firm. Yes, I recommended Amnesty Solicitors to them so I might have some insightful stuff to add to this article l...


Ashmans Solicitors Review: Organised crime costs the UK economy an estimated £24bn annually not to mention the human cost resulting from terrorism, people-smuggling, drug dealing and so on. So that even when you're left in the dark about the details of the http: ashmanssolicitors.com about-us ...


Ashworth Motoring Law Review: So the cost of a solicitor will always seem worth it to avoid that. If you try going to www.ashworthmotoringlaw.co.uk you will be redirected to the non-www version though. There is no such thing as no win, no fee for cases like this either. prefix. We've seen the searches, w...


Atkinson Rose Solicitors LLP Review: I don't know if you've seen our recent posts, but there have been a lot of fake emails from solicitors going around. Some are directly relevant such as having worked in-house for British Airways as an advisor on employee matters or advising on contract matters at Western Uni...


Auto Logistic Solutions Ltd Review: Again (and it's terrible that we're having to point this out but) many insurers put a surcharge in insurance policies for 'legal services', making you pay upfront to use their solicitors if you ever have an accident. With everything so computerised these days and information...

White Collar Legal Review: We also found the firm listed on BusinessApprovalRegister.com which purports to be a list of companies approved by Trading Standards. Way, way more. APR on finance and sugar content in food). We found a good selection on CheckaProfessional.com where White Collar Legal ha...


Balfour+Manson LLP Review: Insurance companies, supermarkets, even plumbers can just overhaul their company and websites to be modern with modern language. The course itself was the subject of much debate and controversy for years, but was handled by a different firm (Dundas & Wilson) who later turned...


Barrister-Direct Limited Review: At Barrister-Direct, your case will be handled by a team of Personal Injury Barristers right from the start. 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 a...


Blain Boland & Co Review: Yes, there are still a lot of law firms with more than a century of history behind them. 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. With all the changes to legal aid an...


BMD Law Solicitors Review: Can they blend the old stalwart law firm peace of mind with the concepts of a fast moving era? Ironically, only time will tell. They state Property law as being the heart of everything at the firm. This is with a "member of our staff who will be extremely experienced i...


Brearleys Solicitors Review: However, staff profile pages can also give you an idea of how strongly a firm focuses on certain case types. if they are trying to increase their business law department. Obviously if you are looking for road accident personal injury help, then distance isn't usually a huge ...


Briffa Legal Ltd Review: I won't go through the full list of possible variants. But as it's likely you'll be dealing with payments and sensitive documents - it might be an idea to bookmark the site to ensure you always come back to the correct place.. We're always looking to get specialists on board...


CBTRL Review: Obviously they believe in getting into the recovery stage very quickly after identifying the problem and have extensive experience in the treatment of emotional and psychological symptoms. An Associate with The International Centre for Clinical Excellence (ICCE). They try to...


CFG Law Review: Luckily the letters stand for Client First Group rather than a solicitor's name. Typically, unless we see specific terms popping up in our website's internal search function (e.g. And obviously we think a lot of the firm otherwise they wouldn't be on our network. I'm just m...


Claims Funding UK Review: class="infoquote "Our service for clients is not only to get the maximum compensation settlement but also and more importantly the best medical and rehabilitation in the fastest possible time frame."< div> These loans don't have to just be used to cover costs tha...


CSL Law Ltd Review: However that is only the date the 'Limited' version of the company was incorporated. It's universally understood that people are more inclined to scour the web for places to leave a review if they've received bad service. Impressively their FAQs section is not a list of fake...


Cubism Law Solicitors Review: Bookmark the sites when you're sure you're on the correct ones just in case. If you haven't read our articles and links to pieces about law firm email scams, do so. "What car do you drive?", "Who would you least like to be stuck in a lift with?" , and so on make up the bulk...


Countrywide Conveyancing Services Review: To be honest, being a qualified solicitor doesn't make you an instant businessman and we saw reports that over a thousand law firms had to close their doors each year following the recession. considerable. Something to show the extra expertise available. When you first arriv...


Davey Law Review: We therefore recommend bookmarking the official www.daveylaw.co.uk site once you're on it.. Come and see us; let's talk over a cup of tea or coffee about the issues that are on your mind. It uses one of the new .expert extensions. They have the usual spread of social media p...


Driscoll Kingston Review: things that can give you an impression of the firm and it's people. Driscoll Kingston's selection of testimonials was utterly unique. However variants such as www.driscollkingston.com or those with a hyphen in the driscoll-kingston don't currently go anywhere so it wou...


DSL UK Debt Collection Review: information you would expect. They also offer a door knocking service. Results are usually provided the same day with all CCJ, insolvency, IVA, bankruptcy, etc. Often, contracts themselves are what will let the debt collection process down. After eight years on the boar...


Edward Hands & Lewis Solicitors Review: Some statements are repeated, some are drawn out, and some seem superfluous - i.e. They are not very good for actual useful communication when it comes to legal issues. In 2012 they received the Business of the Year Award for Loughborough. Locations, phone numbers, etc. ...


FamLegal Family Legal Solicitors Review: Family Legal are specialist divorce, family and private client solicitors established in 2011 to offer clients a better way of resolving their family law issues without the hefty pricetags of instructing a city centre firm. These interviews can take place face-to-face, by te...


Hartley Bain Solicitors Review: Employment Law - addresses the legal rights of employees and employers. Corporate Immigration - with in depth knowledge and an abundance of experience within the corporate field, they aim to provide practical solutions. Hartley Bain believes that one size does not fit all wh...


Helix Law Ltd Review: Both with firms trying to boost their own image, and with competitors trying to sabotage others. If you factor in possible common errors we've already seen such as 'helixlegal', 'helixsolicitors' and even more once you start on hyphens - it's not worth the risk. So yes, the ...

Leech & Co Review: Some refuse to even have a website. Our aim is to put our clients first in everything we do. For all we know they were reviewing the wrong firm or had a ridiculous reason for leaving such a poor rating. That's just when they became a limited company. Wills services don't ex...


HJA Solicitors Review: For example, solicitors typically don't get a lot of online reviews in the same way local shops or online service providers get. The reason for the .net ending is probably because www.hja.co.uk and www.hja.com have been taken by different firms. This popularity s...


Huneewoth Solicitors Review: A general 'feel' of a firm can be gained during all this research. That means you have to check up on both the trading name, and the parent firm to get the full picture. This makes a huge difference when checking through the Legal Ombudsman's complaints database. Ther...


IWC Probate & Will Services Review: If you read our last article, it was about a firm with a history back to 1979 yet had a grand total of three reviews across the entire web. Why is that important? The reason they have so many reviews is probably because they link to review groups from their own websit...


Jackson Lees Group Review: There was then separate sites for www.broudiejacksoncanter.co.uk (which now redirects to www.jacksonlees.co.uk broudiejacksoncanter) and www.lees.co.uk (which now redirects to the main www.jacksonlees.co.uk site). From the receptionists to the solicitors, they are welcoming ...


Jefferies Solicitors Ltd Review: A recent article in http: www.legalfutures.co.uk associate-news jefferies-solicitors-launches-new-flight-delay-claim-service" LegalFutures.co.uk< a> detailed how Jefferies Solicitors' personal injury compensation assistance will be extended to delayed flights. They point ...


Joanna Connolly Solicitors Review: Make sure to ask and discuss in depth how and when the solicitor taking your case expects to get paid. If you are experiencing debt problems and being threatened with possible court action Joanna Connolly Solicitors naturally advise you to seek legal advice immediately....


Kings Court Trust Ltd Review: Also even though the web address www.kingscourttrust.co.uk currently redirects to the main one, www.kingscourttrust.com does not. Whilst there is a http: www.kctrust.co.uk customer-stories" Customer's Stories< a> section, it is mostly just clients praising the firm rather...


Kings View Chambers Review: (If you haven't read any articles on fake solicitor email scams - find one and get aware.) It has always been a popular idea amongst law firms to have a series of specifically tailored websites and King View have done the same with www.licensingdefencebarristers.co.uk, www.g...


KTP Solicitors Review: So judging them on that would be quite unfair. As for internet navigation - the official site is the .com version. Unlike their usual fixed location services - advice given is free and can be on anything such as criminal matters, neighbour disputes, personal injury, div...


Lambertpugh LLP Solicitors Review: (No, that's not a real word.) Anyway, enough about their site. So whilst we checked the www.lambertpugh.com version, we also checked the www.lambert-pugh.co.uk and www.lambert-pugh.com versions. For Commercial Conveyancing, you'll be handled by John 'Lambert' or Ian Ta...


Law In Cornwall Review: But specific to the type of area Cornwall is - they also deal in Holiday Park Law. They've acted for 1000's of clients, claiming £millions in compensation for them. www.lawincornwall.co.uk was the web address we were provided by the firm and www.lawincornwall.com is ow...


MacLachlan Solicitors Ltd Review: Certainly there's a fair bit to boast about considering that some of their solicitors have 25-30 years experience having qualified in the 90s. Is that a bad sign? Not really. A quick note on navigation because whilst typing this review I must have spelled 'maclachlan'...


Mancini Legal Ltd Review: This is where some days are set aside each year and all solicitors taking part across the UK provide Will making appointments for free. I have no hesitation in recommended [sic] Mancini Legal..." "... Mancini clearly have confidence in their customer service. A good...


Marcus Andreen Business Law Review: His website states an estimated saving of around 25% to 50% when compared to that charged by full service, general law firms. Established in 2004, with the objective of offering small businesses and entrepreneurs a cost-effective counsel-type service, Marcus Andreen had...


McShanes Solicitors Review: Obviously trying www.mcshane&co.com will never work, but neither will www.mcshaneandco.co.uk it seems. They are licensed to practice in the Republic of Ireland, and they were the first law firm in NI to achieve the internationally recognised ISO EN 9001 Standard. He is respo...


Meresbrook Pollard Solicitors Review: Rather, appreciate the fact that such discounts were offered at all. The language on the website is actually pretty standard. We've done work for hundreds of them, are regularly in contact with hundreds more, and are connected to thousands more across social media. At t...


Murray Hay Solicitors Review: Colum came to the firm after working in Hong Kong and having his own private practice in Wimbledon. With very little information, a few nice pictures, but the focus on trying to get people to phone up with their questions rather than obtain their own answers from the site. S...


Qdos Legal Services Ltd Review: It did mean we had to go digging a bit further to get a better picture. When the SRA starting allowing the formation of http: www.lawsociety.org.uk support-services advice practice-notes alternative-business-structures " Alternative Business Structures< a> (ABS) Qdos were...


RG Solicitors Review: On the face of it, therefore, there is a risk that people will jump to the conclusion of a firm trying to trendy-themselves-up. No they don't. That's an important feature. They also took part in Will Aid, where people make a will for free in exchange for a donation to the Wi...


RJ Gill Solicitors Review: This is not to say that you'll get a bad outcome. We seek them out, research them, and if they offer something we don't already have on our network - we include them. RJGill may seem to have a small range focus targeting mainly the most common types of personal injury. ...


Robson & Co Solicitors Review: It is Robson, not Robinsons Solicitors. Unfortunately, unless it specifically says something like 'the providing guardian or guardians' - I think there will always be room to take it various ways. Also, according to Edward Hasted -- the author of The History and Topographica...


RSR Law Ltd Review: Almost 14,000 new cases of work-related cancer and approximately 8,000 deaths from occupational cancer in the UK every year is simply too much. We all need to do more to reduce these statistics - each one of those numbers is a person suffering from an illness caused by ...


SBW Law Ltd Review: In our opinion it's a welcome addition to the legal industry . Having a business person running the firm whilst the solicitors focus on their solicitoring (spellcheck says that word doesn't exist, but it should) seems like an obviously positive idea to us. Whilst many firms...


Taylor Rose MW Solicitors Review: So much so, that if Taylor Rose MW were to give up conveyancing they would probably have 5☆ scores across the entire web. The words Taylor Rose MW use, the information available, the things they do, the openness, etc. Sifting further it appears that people are ge...


Taylor Bracewell Review: They were listed in the http: www.thestar.co.uk business city-region-awards-meet-all-51-finalists-1-7891595" City Region Business Awards< a>. (Not least because of the beer-tasting event.) Even a http: www.thestar.co.uk business how-i-made-it-being-forced-out-of-her-cou...


The Johnson Partnership Review: There was a group of architects, a carpet cleaning company, and another law firm that wasn't even based in the UK but Seattle, Washington. We search the regular review sites in order get a general 'feel' or spot common complaints to alert people about. For example, a b...


Thompsons Solicitors Scotland Review: But if you search for simply for Thompson Solicitors, www.thompsons.law.co.uk is the place you'll be sent. Even the unhyphenated versions (e.g. This ability is certainly more helpful to people with serious life-changing injuries that may be out of work throughout the entir...
