https://burtonandco: Therefore they believe leaving the negative review anywhere is 'probably fine'. That's quite something unique to see. To start off we should try to clarify that 'QualitySolicitors' is not an actual law firm with 100 locations. A huge mix of seasoned gurus along side fresh l...

https://michaelleightonjones.com: Alot of problems such as ' https: www.actionfraud.police.uk a-z-of-fraud phishing" phishing< a>' can happen if you type the wrong domain name into a web browser.

https://milnerslaw.com: Add to that people messing with things like using Milner's instead and we think it's a good idea to bookmark the correct site or using a search instead when coming back.

https://krsep.co.uk: That could allow other firms and even clickbait sites (which we cover in #krs this article< a>) to be listed at the top of search results instead.

https://branchaustinmccormick.com: well ... We've been reviewing law firms for over twenty years and have never seen a firm with such a wide range of experience amongst the lawyers within.

https://trojansolicitors.com: Millions and millions have been lost worldwide by https: www.theguardian.com money 2021 jan 02 homebuyers-scams-stamp-duty-holiday-" people sending property deposits to fraudulent bank accounts< a>.

https://hooperhyde.com: The only legal services we've seen consistent reviews on are conveyancing firms because people always have plenty to say about how their house sale purchase went. (5x2=10) That's another great use for the law society website because you can check the actual expertise an...


https://antonyhodari.co.uk: We always recommend taking a quick look at the local law society page for any firm you're thinking of using. To us that's a bit of a cheat. They even provide the qualification dates of any solicitors working at the firm which helps to highlight whether a firm is exag...


https://fair-result.co.uk: Typically we haven't used any of the services of the firms we write articles on. Although according to our poll last year, not even single digit percentages of the public put much faith in company testimonials. Most lawyers will give you 15-60 minutes of their time over the ...

https://argueandco.co.uk: There isn't even a stand alone page of information for most Scottish law firms on the Law Society site.

https://springleandco.co.uk: Best of luck in your search! . class="infoquote "Our fees are fully transparent from the outset." < div> Last note of something that stood out to us. An estate planner needs to know all the new laws and taxes coming out year on year. Either national or loc...

https://www.hawklaw.co.uk: The official website we link to above is www.hawklaw.co.uk with www.hawklaw.com being about some WWII land renovation project.

Luckily there are quite a few good resources to ...


https://stenfield.com: Whereas a new brand legal practice that popped up last month could have several well seasoned lawyers with dozens of years' experience between them. This includes Joan Thorpe-Anderson who qualified in 1993, Caspar Kennedy in 2008, Deepa Sevani in 2015, and so on. We ran a po...


https://khanlaw.co.uk: But you also get firms that cover a huge range of case types that call themselves specialists as well. So how can you research a law firm or solicitor a bit more? Unfortunately people in Scotland are at a disadvantage when it comes to independent information about their lega...

However both www.deovolente.com and www.deovolen...


https://richmondlegalltd.co.uk: So for Richmond Legal to cover both these quite specialist areas together - is actually quite unusual. The most common typos we'd expect would obviously be www.richmondlegal.co.uk and the .com and neither of them are owned by this company either. That's plenty of time to hav...


https://www.trustinheritance.com: But after checking up on the credentials of a firm and looking up whether the 'award-winning service' they tout has actually won some real awards (rather than just being stated hoping you won't check).

https://www.catteralls.co.uk: We did see the name 'Catterall Pell & Moxon' popping up, a branding that no longer operates. In all honesty, no legal practice has a 200+ year old solicitor sitting behind a desk issuing sage advice. If you https: solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk organisation people 4121...


https://penerley.co.uk: Never discuss bank details via email with anyone. The idea being that most people have an image in their head when the term 'solicitor' is mentioned. (We once had a negative comment because we helped lawyers and the person hated lawyers.) They do have some testimonials ...


https://www.searchbureau.co.uk: The lack of easily available reviews shouldn't be viewed negatively in these cases. 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. But it's surely a...


https://educationlawservice.com: For example: class="infoquote • "Making formal written representations to persuade a Local Authority to carry out an assessment" • "Challenging a refusal to assess before the Special Educational Needs Tribunal" • "Reviewing a draft Education Health a...

Not just the legal industry, but all companies as a whole. To get a wider view that includes negative opinions. Hopefu...


https://aspirelicensing.co.uk: 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-after-scam-email " target people selling or buying a house< a> as the money scammed is clear...


https://www.otssolicitors.co.uk: Words such as 'leading', 'modern', 'expertise', and especially 'award-winning' are used so frequently as to probably have little impact on potential clients surfing for help.

In this case, Reid Black do more than ju...


https://www.howe.co.uk: Although according to our poll a couple of years ago, most people don't trust or at least don't pay attention to a company's own testimonial page anyway. One thing you rarely see in relation to UK law firms is an entire Wikipedia page dedicated to them. A quick no...


https://www.robinsomerville.co.uk: We've seen several consultants and sole practitioners advertising themselves as handling everything from Family Law, to Personal Injury, plus Immigration and more.

https://rdcostings.co.uk: But there are a few areas of law where using a specialist firm is held up as the ideal. There is a big difference between a firm that says "no win, no fee" and "100% compensation guaranteed" . It's not something most place high priority on getting. This is not true for...

https://www.mcewanfraserlegal.co.uk: That's quite unheard of. But that's something we're not totally sold on.

https://www.fieldfisher.com: The majority are positive. But does the length of time a firm has been operating translate into happy clients?

The site is https so should be secure fo...


https://www.nvlegal.co.uk: Certainly that last comment is very impressive.
