Frazer Coogans Ltd - Solicitors in Ayr, Prestwick & Glasgow: Whilst we work very hard to find as many alternative options for people to help with legal matters, sometimes you do just need a regular high street law firm.

Jacobs Law Solicitors: One thing we're very keen on is firms having profile pages of their staff including a photo, name, and case types covered. The practice of claiming an "established in 1881" foundation is something common to such professional areas including law, accounting, and journal...

That might not sound like some...

The majority are very positive and (unusually) very long and well written with plenty of information about what work was being done, the names of people handling ...


Mckie Legal Solicitors in Penrith & St Helens (ConnectMeToaLawyer Ltd): So this seemingly innocuous sentence is actually worth quite a few brownie points . The legal industry is one that really hasn't moved swiftly and easily into the modern digital available-all-the-time age. Freqently there are phrases which sound good like 'we're friendly' -...


Michael Leighton Jones Solicitors in Bargoed & Tredomen, Wales: Sadly though, it often does promote that idea and the legal industry is one of the last such places this discrimination exists. Plus, how old the building or the brand name is has no bearing on the years of experience your solicitor may have . They are good words. There are...


Milners Law LLP Solicitors in Leeds, Harrogate & Pontefract: But it is something to bear in mind when looking at what other firms choose to boast about.

Penerley Commercial Lawyers in Islington, London: Even today there are dozens of law firms that don't even have a website, let alone an online tracking system for people to check on their case progress.

Over the past two decades the number of law firms willing to work for the drastically reduced pay that Legal Aid provid...


Reynolds Macdonald Solicitors in Hackney: Please be aware though that reviews for law firms are very different to reviews for things like restaurants or hairdressers.

The Search Bureau from Premier Searches Ltd - UK Conveyancing Search Provider: All other variants we tried such as www.searchbureau.com and www.thesearchbureau.com were owned by different firms.

Swain & Co Solicitors Ltd in Southampton, Liverpool & Havant: We can help you."< div> Certainly Swain & Co stands out clearly as an individual firm rather than just a branding exercise under a parent name.

Taylor Price Legal Ltd - Solicitors in Leeds & Levenshulme (Manchester): You may think it's standard for all solicitors to provide free initial chats.

With so many possible keyboard slips when typing directly into your browser bar we recommend bookmarking the s...


Thaxted Legal Ltd Immigration Solicitors in Chislehurst, London: That's always something to watch out for especially with multi-office firms or firms with non-unique names. We even have a list of the most 'problematic' firms based on the complaints databases. Sadly the government body doesn't even provide a good advisor search function an...


The Legal Practice Ltd - Solicitors in Rickmansworth & Wembley Park, Greater London: The three words of the firm's branding 'the', 'legal', and 'practice' are not unique terms such as when solicitors typically use their own surname. The majority were clearly positive and a huge number focused on praising clear communication from the staff. One of the large...


Trojan Solicitors Ltd Immigration & Family Law in London: For Trojan they list Agnieszka Tomasikiewicz as having qualified in 2012 and Rameez Dar in 2017.

However for ULA Solicitors there are plenty of in-depth reviews stating exactly how they were helped. class="infoquote "We are a team of senior solicitors who combine their knowledge and e...


WH Law Ltd - Immigration Solicitors in Woking: So full time at just immigration asylum matters is decent enough to add up.

Woodstock Legal Services Ltd - Solicitors Law Practice in Poole: If you've already been through a few dozen today it's likely you've seen every single one of them make the claim quoted above from Woodstock's.

Stephanie Heijdra - The Lady Barrister & Clerksroom Chambers in London: studied for a Law Degree at the University of Liverpool and was awarded her LLB (Hons), enabling her to start her bar professional training course (BPTC) whilst simultaneously studying for an LLM in Human Rights Law at Manchester Metropolitan University. https: www.b...
