They provide useful info, commentaries, comparisons, links, samples, examples and more:33 Legal Ltd | Claim Services in Preston & Manchester: Well for one thing, they focus on criminal injury matters .

Then there was an array of case specific titles such as www.cicaclaims...
5 Essex Court Chambers & Partners - Barristers in London: Unfortunately Google can be quite slow in responding to scammers. https: www.legal500.com firms 9330-chambers-of-jason-beer-qc 9330-london-england " The Legal 500< a> page about them also uses similar wording in it's praise: class="infoquote "An excellent set with a...

Aina Khan Law Ltd - Family Law Solicitors in Broxbourne, London: It can also really help with firms that make statements such as '20 years of experience within the firm'. It states that Aina Khan qualified as a solicitor back in 1991 , so that more than verifies her claim to having over 25+ years experience. Typically when we revie...
Allsop Durn Solicitors in Ruislip: As this firm also handles property, always make sure to keep an eye on the email address you're being emailed from and the web address you land on as it's not always transparent. You certainly don't want a firm that treats legal matters the same as they did 30 years ago. ...
Apprise Legal Services - Wills, Trusts, Probate & Estate Planning in Sutton Coldfield: Whilst 'Apprise Legal' with and without the 'Services' on the end will still bring up the correct firm in the top organic results of search engines - we saw a lot of ads surrounding it.

Avery & Walters Ltd - Solicitors in Leeds & Harrogate: Certainly there is no 200+ year old solicitor working behind any of the desks. You can click on each person's name to see further details about their chosen fields as well. So don't think we're pushing that bookmarking stuff just to promote the firm. Most solicitors in the U...
AWH Legal Ltd - AWH Solicitors in Manchester & Blackburn: For example, their staff profile pages are heavy on the personal information such as the solicitor's hobbies - but lacking in personal details such as direct email phone numbers.

Driscoll Kingston Solicitors in Liverpool: More than a dozen snippets packed with odd grammar, spelling mistakes, and a mix of quotes commentaries. The rest are all 4-5 star reviews saying the company is great. Jennifer Campbell was helpful, imformative [sic] and kept us updated at all times."
"Driscoll Kingston w...
Hammond Trotter Solicitors Ltd | Motor Offence Lawyers in Manchester & London: In all honestly, I don't think there is another firm anywhere on our network with this many reviews listed on third party forums.

HH Law Ltd - Hampson Hughes Solicitors in Liverpool: One of the founders of our own 1to1Legal Firm (Mike Beverley) actually started off as an accident investigator in Liverpool for a nationwide firm of solicitors. So do we recommend Hampson Hughes?
class="infoquote "Our objective is to ensure we recover the maximum amo...
Helix Law Ltd - Solicitors in Brighton & Eastbourne: Here are some snippets from Helix Law's site. Why is that of note?

IWC Estate Planning & Management Ltd - Probate & Will Services in Croydon, Bristol & Braintree: You may have already noticed that not many people bother writing reviews about law firms. The chances of any legal situation being resolved to a client's 100% satisfaction is not possible.

Lawcomm Solicitors Services in Fareham, Whiteley & London: At this point we would actually state that any firm that hasn't created such a facility for their clients is falling behind and lacking something that should really be a basic provision.

...
Leech & Co Solicitors Ltd in Manchester: For all we know they were reviewing the wrong firm or had a ridiculous reason for leaving such a poor rating.

Levins Solicitors in Huyton, Liverpool: We've genuinely seen one firm that stated they were 'continuing a 150 year history in the area' based on the fact they'd moved into a building previously occupied by a much older firm. Hopefully that can be sorted out soon.

MTA Personal Injury Solicitors LLP in Bromley, Kent - Greater London: Even in these modern, internet-based, non-stop-access-wanting times it's still rare for a law firm to open beyond the standard 9am-5pm Mon-Fri.

MGBe Legal Immigration Lawyers in London: It's just that whilst people are quite willing to post about how bad or well their house sale went, they are far less likely to jump onto the internet to declare how their divorce, or criminal trial, or mental capacity claim is going.

Redwood Collections Ltd - Debt Recovery Services based in Croydon: Some are set up to send threatening letters and do some doorstep visits. Redwood managed to get my money back.

Serious Law LLP - Serious Injury Law Solicitors in Bolton: It's been some time since we've reviewed a firm that worked anything out of the old-fashioned 9am-5pm Mon-Fri blocks.
