Two Harcourt Buildings Chambers - 2HB Barristers in London: On the Bar Standards Board's site you can't always look up by overall firm name and even when you do find a page on an individual chamber's member the information is certainly not layman-friendly. If you've already been through a dozen other law firm's sites before rea...


A City Law Firm Ltd in London: A City Law Firm has been on our network for a while now and has many aspects about it you may have come across in your search for legal help and wondered what it means or where you can get more information.

ACSL Solicitors Ltd in Liverpool: If firm says they have been established for over 150 years for example, that doesn't mean there is a 150 year old guru solicitor sitting behind the desk running everything.

Amy King Legal - Personal Injury & Litigation Solicitor in Gillingham, Kent: People are weird. Certainly when confronted with a very friendly 5-year experienced solicitor after just speaking to an incredibly curt 40-year veteran - you will be tempted to use the less experienced but more approachable person. class="infoquote "For more than 25 ...


Backhouse Solicitors in Chelmsford, Essex: To start us off we're going to be critical of the statement above taken from the firm's own website.

Brodies LLP Solicitors in Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh & Inverness Scotland: Hopefully it's apparent that 1to1Legal is not just another directory of law firms. Not just large in the sense of multiple offices, but in the level of transactions they engage in. The firm offers legal advice to private and public sector clients both in the UK and internati...


Buchanan & Co Ltd Solicitors in Staveley, Chesterfield, Kiveton Park & Sheffield: Also while the firm's branding uses an ampersand, such characters https: uniregistry.com blog post the-symbols-of-brand-domain-confusion" don't exist< a> in web addresses so variants such as www.buchanan&co.co.uk will not work. We've been working in the legal industry fo...


Calio Claims Ltd - Personal Injury in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth & Dundee: 'calio claims glasgow', which might show up different reviews than 'calio claims edinburgh'. This really should just be a matter of what logo is at the top of the emails and letters you receive. The first sounds like a modern firm whilst the second sounds like a crusty old...

Drummond Miller LLP Solicitors in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Bathgate, Musselburgh, Dalkeith & East Kilbride: They are all still mostly positive and at the time of writing DM had a Google rating of 4.4 stars. Sometimes for something as simple as an official-looking email telling them the bank payment details have changes. This has had some great impacts on the industry in the ...


Eatons Solicitors in Bradford, Bingley, Yeadon & Leeds West Yorkshire: But it doesn't sound as grand put that way. Never compare average star ratings for legal services.

Foster & Coleman Ltd Solicitors in Bromley, Greater London: For example you'd obviously be much better off with a 40-year veteran lawyer from a 1-year old firm than a 1-year qualified newbie solicitor that happens to work at a 200-year old brand name. class="infoquote "Legal advice you can depend on, from people you can tru...

Harrison's Solicitors - Conveyancing in Reading, Caversham & Woodley: It has levelled the playing field so that smaller firms offering great service can't be crushed out of the market by larger, bigger-budgeted firms.

HCR Legal LLP Solicitors Law Firm incl Medical Accident Group in Worcester, Birmingham & Hereford: However, since no other firm is going to say they do not have a passion for people - or that they don't care about making a difference to people's lives - this information doesn't really help you distinguish this firm from any other . Many firms offer 'testimonials' on thei...


Heritage Park Family Law Ltd - Barrister Chambers in Ampthill, Bedford: A solicitor may not be able to represent you in court while a barrister can.

Mark Croft Driving Offence Solicitor in Derby: So just be careful anyway when visiting sites and always be aware of what site you're on, it's padlock status, and who's emailing you..

McCarthy + Co LLP Solicitors in Dublin, Cork & Clonakilty: Even this quote above from the McCarthy & Co site about being award-winners is a claim made by so many of its rivals.

These are just little things but you need to keep vigilant - especially...


Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors in Macclesfield: That's not a criticism. 'Experience' length of times can also be worded very differently on sites and we think Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors have done themselves a dis-service in how they've worded theirs. There is a theme of 'listening' and 'caring' repeated throu...


Oakwood Solicitors Ltd & Oakwood Property Solicitors in Leeds: However, our poll a few years back indicated that only 9% of people trusted company provided testimonials.
