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:

33Legal Ltd Review: The maximum a solicitor should take though is 25% of your compensation to help cover costs as not all case types result in the solicitors fees being covered by the third party. Medical Negligence cases for example are notoriously hard to pursue due to the extensive medical...


5 Essex Court Review: However with 5 Essex Court there seems to be a wealth of information, articles and reviews available right from the outset. Clearly 5 Essex Court are highly regarded by other professionals , but there are far fewer comments on the web by people who have actually used a ba...


Aconveyancing Ltd Review: class="infoquote "We also provide expert legal advice ..."< div> If the firm you're checking out is located in England Wales then they will most likely be registered with the main Law Society for that area. Of course, there will be several other variants available...


Aina Khan Law Ltd Review: Typically when we review a firm we have to excuse the majority of their website's content. Aina Khan Law Ltd for example are signed up with The Law Society for England & Wales. (Both genuine law firm names.) Plus most scammers https: www.theguardian.com money 2017 jan 14 l...


Allsop Durn Solicitors Review: We've had someone rant about 'capitalist law firms!' on our reviews and seen someone give a 1 star rating to a Divorce specialist for refusing to take on their Personal Injury case. You'd think this would be common practice but out of the last dozen or so sites we've looked ...


Apprise Legal Services Review: There aren't nearly as many security concerns with a Wills & Probate specialist firm than with those that specialise in other matters such as Property (just seach for 'conveyancing bank details scam' to see how bad it is). Whilst 'Apprise Legal' with and without the 'Service...


APS Legal & Associates Review: Hopefully we'll get an article about it out soon and we'll insert a link here to help. However, putting everything we've written so far together - it may now be more apparent why we decided APS would be a good firm to both write about and include in the list of recommended f...


Avery Walters Solicitors Review: Laura successfully navigated me through the process with the minimum of fuss," "found them to be very helpful and kept me updated regularly" "They helped me so much with a dispute I had with my employer. Obviously there are going to be common mistakes such as 'avar...


AWH Solicitors Review: The official company name is AHW Legal Ltd which is what shows on the Companies House records and The Law Society pages we linked to above. However with anyone able to make a flashy website and write good sales pitches - how do you know the best options for you? If you s...


Catteralls Solicitors Review: You are just as likely to get a one year qualified newbie solicitor from a one hundred year old practice as you are to get a twenty year well-seasoned solicitor from a one year old law firm brand. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation people 412101 ...


DFA Law LLP Review: We guarantee you there is no 200-year-old solicitor sitting behind the desk of any law firm in the UK. In this review we'll try and point out the most useful we've found. Alternative contact details, other offices, SRA authority information, practice case focuses and more. S...


Hammond Trotter Solicitors Review: The ones above are taken from the independent review sites. However this option is usually only made available if you respond quickly. The number of possible offences is always growing. So after all this time there must surely be plenty of reviews on the firm? Y...


DV Solicitors Review: We've even had a negative review for contributing to the UK's 'capitalist regime'. For motor offence court cases you may be better off with a Direct Access barrister. DV Solicitors have other positive points. The Law Society of England & Wales is a simply excellent r...


Education Law Service Ltd Review: class="infoquote "We offer a free thirty minutes remote virtual consultation"< div> A nice respectable middle offering that will hopefully let you get some information about what help is available, your chances, the costs, and for you to get a good enough feel fo...


Fieldfisher LLP Review: One thing most people agree on is that seeing 'established in 1881' or some such ancient date proudly stamped across a firm's website - no longer provides much sway. For this firm to have individual offices within the UK that have remained focused on a relatively small tar...


Frank Rogers Law Ltd Review: It's always a good idea to bookmark a law firm's site if you plan to return to it. The https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk office 1320 frank-rogers-law-ltd" page for this firm< a> will provide you with several links to look information about the practice, people and cas...


GloverPriest Solicitors Review: However we did spot: class="infoquote "We give you peace of mind through a free 30 minute consultation, ensuring that we meet your exact requirements. Direct contact details are always a huge bonus too though. We therefore absolutely recommend bookmarking the officia...


Hampson Hughes Solicitors Review: Cases may take months or even years. Having spent more than a year 'face down on the wet pavements of Liverpool taking photos and measurements' he's more aware of the big differences between the various personal injury firms. But there really are issues that need to be dea...


Howe + Co Solicitors Review: Gushingly so on occasions, as I'm guessing they were in relation to situations such as immigration where people can feel literally in the middle of life death struggles. So with so many variants such as www.howeandco.com being available and www.howeandco.co.uk being owned b...


R James Hutcheon Solicitors Review: If you've read any of our other review articles, you'll know that any firm we add to the 1to1Legal network has something about it we like that made them stand out. Beware of law practices touting ancient founding dates. those phone calls you keep getting asking about c...


Ian Mallon Solicitors Review: Newry has a Polish Families Community Association with bustling Facebook page and all. There could be some common spelling errors such as 'Malon' or people looking up other variations such as ianmallonsolicitors.com - but it's always a good idea to bookmark any site you plan...


Jarmans Solicitors Ltd Review: We expect this to be less than 5% of users though. But outside of that, they do the traditional 9am-5pm solicitors hours with closures on bank holidays. She was completely professional and sensitive throughout the process, keeping me updated on progress regularly. Our regio...


Khan Law Review: Normally a firm obtains testimonials for their site through direct questions or specific feedback questionnaires. No win no fee only guarantees there are no costs if the case loses . But the number of firms being clear about what that means is far fewer. But most tend not t...


Kudos Legal Ltd Review: We would hope that the firm's ethos carries across the company as a whole though: class="infoquote "Our commitment to our clients is what truly sets us apart from other Solicitors."< div> We did have some issues navigating the site whilst writing this. class...


Lawcomm Solicitors Review: We've seen a firm stating a 150 year history yet their staff list contained no solicitor with more than a decade's worth of experience. If you needed to speak to someone in particular and they were busy you always got a call back quickly." "Tahzeem handled our property ...


Levins Solicitors Review: You can see the massive difference between the great information provided on the England & Wales law society website though when you check out alternates such as https: www.liverpoollawsociety.org.uk lawyers levins-solicitors " their page on the< a> Liverpool Law So...


Lindsays Solicitors Review: Whilst many legal practices and other industry companies will boast about their testimonial page, the fact Lindsays' page is not so well boasted doesn't really matter. Why people fall so easy for this we'll try and put together an article on later. Search engines seem to bri...

Aspire Licensing Review: Their website is https secure though for entering your person details in the contact form. At the moment, most fraudsters are doing their best to https: www.todaysconveyancer.co.uk main-news newlyweds-duped-into-handing-over-45000-house-deposit-to-fake-solicitor-account-...


Linkilaw Solicitors Review: A final word from Linkilaw about their services: class="infoquote "With straight forward and clear-cut advice, we help start-ups and entrepreneurs navigate law to help them succeed."< div>.

Mason Bullock Solicitors Review: However with Mason Bullock Solicitors we were actually very eager to get them on to the network from the start. class="infoquote "most of our cases can be dealt with successfully via phone and email"< div> The firm has been around for a while so if you see ...


McEwan Fraser Legal Review: However, McEwan Fraser Legal actually are out of the ordinary when it comes to the things we tend to commend other firm for. Such availability by McEwan Fraser during a very stressful process hasn't gone un-noticed as you'll read in most of the comments across review...


MGBe Legal Review: As mentioned, some bits of information we've gleaned from the web came through using the actual solicitor's name. The page also lists Gabriella as a consultant for SLIG Law LLP, Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP, and Fadiga & Co Ltd. If someone is not quite experienced enough...


MTA Personal Injury Solicitors LLP Review: There are also two Bromley addresses knocking around as well, but it's the same practice and the address on the firm's website is the correct one if you need to visit. But the majority of firms state something similar. It happens to firms all the time where a cold-caller sta...


NV Legal Ltd Review: class="infoquote "Your claim will only be handled by a qualified solicitor from day one ... Also, there aren't many scams targeting personal injury claimants at the moment. However, communication between client and the legal practice they've chosen is hugely importan...


OJ Solicitors Ltd Review: Quite often you'll see negative ratings with comments that don't even sound as though they are talking about the correct firm. Oana is a mature, experienced solicitor, holding law degrees in both Romania and Scotland, with over ten years of practice."< div>. It is a balancin...


OTS Solicitors Ltd Review: (Wherever that expression came from.) class="infoquote "OTS Solicitors is a well-known firm of UK immigration, Employment, Family and Litigation Solicitors, and the leading authority for many TV, radio and newspaper organisation"< div> Whilst many people will jus...


Penerley Lawyers Review: We've been trying to find some of these specialists to add to our network and seeking those that seem to have a better grip on what type of legal professional today's modern business-person is after. You don't actually have to be a qualified solicitor to sell someone some ...


Penn Chambers Solicitors Review: You never know what's around the corner though and with the various alternative domains possible (e.g. Normally companies use the Blog section to write dozens of extra (very thinly disguised) sales pitches. The fact Penn Chambers offer this is therefore a good sign of the...


Pump Court Chambers Review: The Pump Court Chambers site is https secure for submitting your personal details online with their contact and callback forms. But there are far more comments that we noticed, probably more so than most consumers would. She really made me feel at ease" "Matthew...


RD Costings Review: The site also states: class="infoquote "You may be entitled to compensation if you have been a victim of a violent crime."< div> The "may" being in bold is how it's written on their site. When you see firms stating "no win, no fee" across their site, tha...


Redwood Collections Ltd Review: A final word from Redwoods site: class="infoquote "Whatever your debt collection or credit management needs, we have the expertise and resources to deliver a fast, efficient and cost-effective solution."< div> That may sound a little cliche but considering the oth...


Reid Black Solicitors Review: That doesn't mean we are bias for the sake of it. Obviously there could be mis-spellings of the Reid part with the whole 'i' before 'e' thing many of us still have stuck in our heads from school. Made my whole experience stress free." "Highly experienced staff have hel...


Richmond Legal Ltd Review: The main one for English Welsh legal professionals is The Law Society of England & Wales and it is simply an excellent resource for people to use. So a public display (it's actually capitalised on the Richmond Legal website but we shrunk it to avoid distraction) of a numbe...


Robin Somerville Direct Access Barrister Review: We tried the following week and it still didn't work. The old 'Jack of all trades ...' maxim. class="infoquote "Robin Somerville helps businesses and professionals solve their legal problems."< div> So what other ways can you evaluate a firm you're checking out? ...


The Search Bureau Review: However, as already mentioned at the outset of this piece, there often isn't as much to go on when it comes to service providers to the law firms we often write about. It probably doesn't occur to employees of a firm to jump on the web to write a review about a service their...


Serious Law LLP Review: The one prior was about a firm that seemed to have avoided the lime-light of news articles and review sites like ours yet had dozens of client reviews across all the major rating forums. Serious injuries are when you will need the full expertise of medical experts, psycholog...


Simons Rodkin Solicitors LLP Review: This idea that the firm isn't consumed by fees and time-monitoring is also reflected in their website where you'll find https: www.sr-law.co.uk articles debt-collection-by-small-businesses " a genuine help article section< a>. How do you know which is best for you? ...


Stenfield Solicitors Review: class="infoquote "very impressed with the efficient handling of our case" "We were kept informed throughout" "absolutely fantastic and made my move completely and utterly stress free" "Efficient, friendly and great value for money"< div> These are j...


Taborns Legal Business Review: Please note that W Taborn & Co is not the same company, they are some sort of luggage manufacturer in London.

The Injury Solicitor Ltd Review: This is quite justifiable in some circumstances such as for difficult cases including medical negligence, uninsured drivers, criminal injury claims and so on. So don't discuss bank details or payments via email, and if someone phones you up saying they are from the firm you ...


Thorpe Wilson Solicitors Review: This is usually through a Conditional Fee Arrangement (CFA) such as taking a 25% cut of your compensation. Whilst the majority of scams at the moment https: www.thetimes.co.uk static connected-families conveyancing-email-scam-hackers-steal-house-deposit " tend to target l...


Trust Inheritance Ltd Review: They also offer a fully online service called a DIY Probate Toolkit at a fraction of the cost of the managed service. So why might you pick a niche firm like Trust Inheritance Ltd over your local high street firm that covers estate matters as well? If you want to ge...

Bilkus & Boyle Review: This could be a national one, county based, or city wide for larger population cities. A two hundred year old brand name doesn't have a two hundred year old solicitor dealing with cases. Typically one side is always unhappy at how a sale has gone either due to timescale, del...


The Solicitors Advocates & Barristers Inc Review: class="infoquote "TSABI is made up of people who are passionate about helping individuals and businesses by delivering legal solutions that highlight their real talent in different areas of law."< div> Claims like this are across the majority of websites you'll s...
