A few of the staff received individual mentions s...
KTPSolicitors: There was another, more controversial story regarding the firm defending a killer. Despite Legal Aid availability shrinking year on year, this firm still tries to get you that funding where possible. That means no matter what happens during the case - the cost to you will no...
Countrywide Property Lawyers Ltd: This resulted in a poll asking people if they would use an ABS coming back with only 1% saying 'yes'.

RGSolicitors: Do you know the feeling I'm getting at?

GoComplain Consumer Complaints Online: They then take a limited course of action such as writing some letters. But they should advise you if there is any industry Ombudsman to attempt recourse through prior to the last resort of actual court action. That's not help.

Starck Uberoi Solicitors: We'd advise bookmarking the official site once you're on it, and copy pasting any email addresses rather than trying to type them manually if you do decide to go with the firm..

Acumen Law Ltd: Does it go too far into the realm of frivolity? Acumen don't deal with personal injury, divorce, wills or anything other than business law. Usually it's in an awkward manner equivalent to wearing a sideways baseball cap whilst talking to teenagers. But at least on this occas...
Archways Solicitors Manchester Ltd: It may be a rather extreme example of a 'jargon-free' firm, but it's a good one. We will reply in the document or may reply by email depending on circumstances.

Mercantile Barristers Ltd: If a firm has over thirty 5☆ reviews all from people that have only ever left 1 review in their whole life - they're probably fake. Just like my last point about Blogs, the person who took the time to write the content on the Mercantile Barrister website clearly loves ...

Michael Rose & Baylis Ltd:
We did see that they are offering 'free conveyancing quotes' ... They really do have a mix, with one solicitor qualified in 2002 and another in 2018. You may see that the bad score is actually just one person who's complaint is nonsense. However, it's not just buzzw...

Hine Legal Solicitors: In fact, if you read the About Us sections of most law firms claiming to be ancient in wisdom you'll most likely see tenuous links of one firm merging with another and being bought over by the new founder's ex-wife's hamster.
So if you can't use a firm's age to determin...
Warwick Vesey Solicitors: One person simply cannot keep up to date with all the changes and nuances of every single area of law.

Parkview Solicitors & Higher Court Advocates: Parkview, however, talk as though they are comfortable with both. Yes, they do no win no fee (aka conditional fee) arrangements where appropriate.

MorganCarter Solicitors: If a firm does not promise you no win, no fee AND 100% compensation - then there is a good chance you have just signed away a chunk of your compensation to that law firm.

Alfred James and Co Solicitors: Does that mean we're going to write a completely bias review? Of course not.
