Finding the Right Help in the UK

We've written many more pieces from various angles and about various type of firms across various parts of the country with various case ranges and varying experiences. Not to mention various ages, backgrounds and resources. The reviews are not really to state one firm is better than another:

Autologistic Solutions Limited: Most people already know that severe damage is recorded in the car's history and even the most basic searches will tell a buyer when and what level. Yes, you'll probably get it refunded after your case is settled 3-12 months later. No bake sales for charity covered in the lo...


Philip Nam White Collar Legal: They certainly have all the expected social profiles, but they are mentioned peripherally around the website. It's "more than" the Citizen's Advice Bureau. If you're a legal professional, the PPP site is worth a few minutes of your time. Their new job is merely to show you ...


Stephen McCaffery & Catherine Stock: How he describes himself? class="infoquote "Renowned for my 'hands on' approach to all cases, I am fast to meet clients and become involved in case strategy and management from the earliest opportunity. Prior to practice at the Bar he worked in a criminal defence firm...


Kings Court Trust Probate: We always encourage and reward our advisers for going above and beyond what is expected of them so that we can exceed our clients' expectations."< div> Although it doesn't go into detail about what 'reward' advisers get and what kind of things constitute going 'above an...


EHL Solicitors UK: Of course, some solicitors are still in the technical dark-ages without even a website to showcase. Our offices are open between 9am - 5pm, Monday to Friday and our telephone lines are open from 8am - 6pm, Monday to Friday. Obviously, using the 'and' in the name would make...

Davey Law: But until I actually sat down to write about Davey Law, it didn't hit me that we had just secured the services of a stereotypical solicitor's practice. So yes. color="green "We are happy to arrange home or hospital visits throughout Gloucestershire, Worcesters...


Meresbrook Pollard Ltd: There isn't even a single complaint in the Legal Ombudsman's database against them (we've gone through 8,000+ complaint records). taxis, liquor, gaming, etc.) which is mentioned only briefly on an inner page, so you might miss it. spouse family student visas), Civil Litigati...


Balfour and Manson Solicitors: Whilst a large number of firms will ensure some level of disability help, such as wheelchair access to the offices - this seems to be something more. They have profile pages for their staff, but all the profile photos show people dressed smartly in an office setting. So if y...


MurrayHay Solicitors: Such as: - "Lisa once again exceeded my expectations, as Ian did on my previous sale, and I would like to thank them both." - "We will use Lisa again and again and keep referring Murray Hay. To finish it off, we spotted this statement: "The firm is made up ...


Thompsons Solicitors Glasgow: We help our clients gaining access to top treatments, rehabilitation therapies, medical equipment and information about benefits and other forms of assistance."< div> This is something we've posted about and discussed with law firms for many years. You'll also be sent t...


Alison Ashworth Solicitors: They have 100% success rates in most offence categories including drink and drug driving cases involving the analysis of blood or urine. www.ashworthmotoringlaw.com does not load for us, and it is possible that you may forget the firm's name and try things relating to Ashwor...


Jackson and Canter now Jackson and Lees: Certainly our own donations have been guided by recommendations in the past. In our original article on the firm, we commented that we were not big fans of the testimonial page which contained too many boiler-plate sounding comments, such as: class="infoquote "I ...


Accident Claims Scotland: Make sure you find out what these are in the early stages of researching who to use. well, we're at least more impartial than the BBC. www.accidentclaimscotland.co.uk and www.accidentclaimscotland.com (minus the extra "s") currently show absolutely nothing. But ACS say claim...

Lambert Pugh Conveyancing Solicitors: Including: - a "Step-by-Step Guide" from start to finish about what is involved in a conveyancing sale or purchase - a "Conveyancing Expenses" piece about all the costs to expect throughout such as moving - an article on "Joint Tenancy" discussing the difference...


Newry's McShanes Law Firm: So once you know you're on the right site, it would probably be a good idea to bookmark it.. - they also have a very specific list of case titles, such as Proceeds of Crime Investigations, Adoption, Assets Recovery, Defamation and Privacy, Equal Rights, Domestic Violence, an...


Taylor Rose Solicitors Limited TTKW: Then in 2009 they branched out into other case types before taking over the property and commercial law firm Wilkinson & Co in 2012. The largest conveyancer in the UK is Countrywide Conveyancing who are currently rated 2.2 5 on Google out of 150+ reviews. Deciding what inf...


Atkinson Rose (Amit Patel) Employment Solicitors: One thing you need to remember though, is that specialists probably take on a lot of cases that other firms considered either too difficult to pursue or unlikely to succeed. To me, this shows the firm's genuine interest in not just following the industry changes, but also mu...


BarristerDirect Ltd based in Manchester: Barrister-Direct Limited has taken advantage of regulatory changes in the market, which allow Barristers to act for clients directly on a litigation basis. The aim of Barrister-Direct is to provide a modern, efficient and client centred approach to Personal Injury cases...


Hythe Solicitors Robson & Co, near Folkestone in Southern Kent: I mean, really, really rare. But personally, taking the rest of the content into consideration (and as the person actually writing this review) I believe it is gender-free expression. So we were over the moon to get this firm on board in the lower east side of England, where...


Brearleys Solicitors Brighouse: However, many people prefer a more local presence for other case types such as divorce or property matters. Obviously if you are looking for road accident personal injury help, then distance isn't usually a huge issue. if they are trying to increase their business law depart...


Law in Cornwall Ltd: Therefore, their solicitors provide you with the necessary strategic advice to ensure that you can resolve your problem or dispute as swiftly and effectively as possible. They provide legal services in contract disputes such as online contracts, construction disputes, d...


Julia Brown Solicitor @ Family Legal Solicitors: If you would like to talk to speak to Family Legal then please feel free to contact them on (01606) 841273. The firm's owner and Principal Solicitor Julia Brown is a member of resolution, and have achieved accredited specialist status with them in relation to both cohabitee ...


Anupamah Huneewoth Solicitors: Nothing positive or negative should be read into whether a firm is part of the National Solicitor's network or not. www.huneewothsolicitors.com does not exist either. The contrast was quite profound. Even if the firm has an 0800 or other freephone number, they should have a ...


MacLachlans Solicitors Gillingham: 5 staff members with 10 years experience equalling 50 years of combined experience). However quite often this number is gained from adding all the staff's experience together (e.g. You can often find this information on The Law Society's website, but it can sometimes be a pa...


Marcus Andreen Commercial Law: Prior to that he worked in legal roles for Mobile Systems International Limited (MSI), and Synon.. However, where it is not possible to determine the amount of time any work is likely to take, charges will be calculated on the basis of time spent. As a commercial lawyer with...


Hartley Bain Solicitors in Stratford, Greater London: Corporate Immigration - with in depth knowledge and an abundance of experience within the corporate field, they aim to provide practical solutions. This allows them to build an innovative and bespoke service to suit each relationship. The attentiveness to detail that you con...


Debt Solve UK: and therefore quite worth it. Vague statements about the length of time to pay, costs for failing to pay, and so on are not just errors for law firms. This allows businesses to check the up to date credit score of their customers to help keep that cash flow intact. They have...


Taylor Bracewell Doncaster: They promise to provide a costs quotation and a timescale at the outset of your case. Personal Law matters handled at the firm include conveyancing, will writing, probate, Asset Protection for the Elderly, Power of Attorney, plus Trust and Inheritance Tax Planning. A fe...


KTPSolicitors: This does not mean no fees at all. We've never seen a negative reason so far. He is an Accredited Family Mediator, helping clients talk face to face with those involved in the case rather than racking up the legal bills with only the lawyers speaking back and forth. Bac...


Countrywide Property Lawyers Ltd: Well, I'll start off this article with something very positive to say ... As for actual complaints, I don't have any to share right now other than the number of websites operated by Countrywide is ... So time for me to stop waffling and get on with it. You also get mul...


Michael Jefferies Injury Lawyers @ Jefferies Solicitors Ltd: They point out that things such as depreciating value of the car, road tax increases, and so on are yet to be discovered. The main people to note would probably be Michael Jefferies (Managing Director), Nina Ramsden (Director), and Kathryn Harland (Personal Injury Solic...


CBTRL Wendy Amey: A quick note on navigation. So, sadly, it is often ignored in cases where there are enough physical injuries to proceed on them alone. Getting treatment as quickly as possible can help reduce the length of time taken to recover, and therefore the amount of compensation...


RJGill Solicitors: Whilst you may not have to pay fees if your case fails, you could end up paying out 25% of your compensation to the law firm handling your case. It also re-iterates a statement seen elsewhere on the site that color="green "it's better to be smart and creative rather than l...


RGSolicitors: Usually, there are a dozen or so statements printed on a page. Often without dates. That's why they are now on our panel, and why we recommend them to people searching for legal help. To be honest, when I first started flicking through the site, my personal assumption ...


Amnesty Solicitors: There are plenty of other websites with amnesty and or immigration in the URl though, and at the moment if you search for "amnesty immigration" you'll be confronted with more news stories than actual immigration firms. If you do end up trying to search for the firm's na...


BMDLaw Solicitors: The main solicitor of note in all this is Bernadette McDonald, who trained in Manchester primarily in commercial law. The BDM team will apparently provide business audits to identify possible risks. They do mention the standard no win, no fee catchphrase - but there is...


Blain Boland & Co Solicitors: Each individual solicitor may have a few decades of experience under their belt, but the name they choose for their firm will be unfamiliar and not easy to research. Blain Boland & Co is actually a trading name of Blain Boland and Thomas Ltd. In fact, quite the opposite...


Qdos Solicitors Legal Services: There is even www.qdosunderwriting.com, www.qdosvantage.com, www.qdostax.com, and www.qdosaccounting.com available, again targeting specific types of client they are looking to service. Beyond that, Qdos even provide advice lines, claims handling services (via their Qdos Bro...


Ashmans Solicitors Ltd: But this seems to no longer be the case. Next, on browsing through the firm's website I saw that the News section was filled with content pages about various types of possible cases, rather than any actual news. We are able to provide our services on a national level. T...


Mulcare Jenkins: Next are the reviews. appointments can be made between the hours of 7am and 10pm Monday to Friday and at weekends." "... There's real clarity and an obvious goal to work with clients outside of the typical 9 to 5. The fee they would normally take gets given to charity inst...


Claims Funding UK: In special circumstances however the repayment of the loan and interest charges can be demanded immediately if you act in any way which might undermine the good faith of this relationship. They'll then need to request various documents from your solicitor to verify you and y...


Greg Almond Solicitors Manchester: But rest assured, one nearer the main bus stations and train terminals obviously stands a better chance. The original setup was Droylsden, Heaton Moor & Oldham. In fact, they state experience in Personal Injury, Wills & Probate, Flight Delays, Civil Litigation, Clinical...


Cubism Law London: This article on Cubism Law has been a long time coming. Of course considering the waffle I allow myself to put out regularly, my criticism could be seen as slightly hypocritical. They even handle different case types than the head office such as Family Law, including: divorc...


Furse Sanders Ltd: class="infoquote "Come and get a different experience. It's a theme running through their charity page which lists Admiral Nurses (dementia) and The Cinnamon Trust (helping elderly people with pets). I wanted to have my staff treat people the way I do. Furse San...


Else Law: Perhaps you've got a keener eye and will notice the numerous https: elselaw.co.uk about-us free-guides " PDF downloads< a> available from the site providing more in-depth information and advice on things such as Debt Recovery, Intellectual Property, Employment, and Lastin...


Lee Dowling LMD Law: For some reason, despite the firm being progressive in so many areas - they have opted to use an 0800 freephone number on their website. From the LMDLaw site: color="green "We also provide constant access to your important file documents using our convenient client po...


GoComplain Consumer Complaints Online: The biggest delay depends on the company you're complaining about. We know because we've helped people do that in the past. The ideal outcome is that the evidence is sound, the argument is well made, the third party is reasonable, and the resolution requested is fair. It may...


Starck Uberoi Solicitors: We therefore provide an overview of the firm and point you to extra bits you might not know about. SU's case studies vary in length and detail. We do not compromise these values, so have long lasting relationships with our clients built on trust."< div> It certainly so...


Acumen Law Ltd: There's a level of balance and insight you simply will not get from a regular business law firm. If you've read some of our other articles, you'll know we're against firms forcing the idea they're modern using cheap gimmicks such as carbon-offset computers or bean-bags in t...


Archways Solicitors Manchester Ltd: Everything is in plain English, including this snippet we spotted in the not-so-small print of their enquiry form: class="infoquote "Use of this form does not create an attorney-client relationship and information transmitted will not necessarily be treated as privile...


Mercantile Barristers Ltd: However, the reasoning is perfectly sound. Often the first time you meet the barrister would be at the court house for the hearing. There isn't a wise 200 year old solicitor mentoring and monitoring everyone at the firm. So why do we like Mercantile? Several reasons....


Kent Traffic Law Maidstone: This obviously can save a considerable amount of time and money. There is definitely a distinct lack of "we'll get you off!" in the language of the firm's website, and more of a "we'll make sure you have the best possible defence" instead. It's quite clear f...


Michael Rose & Baylis Ltd: Not in the slightest. If we spot them in the future, we'll add them. Just a few general tips regarding reviews though: if the exact same 5 star reviews are copy pasted on to every review site - they're probably fake. That's not why we added Michael Rose & Baylis to t...


Bradford & Son Solicitors: So does that mean you'll rarely get to speak to your actual solicitor? No. We were actually introduced to Bradford & Son because we knew someone who went to work with them. Usually if we haven't heard of a firm, it's because they're quite new. Certainly if you sea...


Boyd Rice Solicitors: Neil McGranaghan manages the litigation department and has extensive experience dealing with injury claims including those that occurred outside Northern Ireland - such as the Republic of Ireland or Europe. Usually we link to each firm's Law Society page so you could...


Hine Legal Solicitors: We didn't research all the other tlds or hyphenated versious. Unlike the dozens of front pages that all say 'our firm is traditional yet modern', 'fast yet unrushed', 'friendly yet professional' or similar marketing buzzword cliches. Of course if you're going to go with...


Warwick Vesey Solicitors: Or they will sound empathetic, talking about how they can help reduce the stress and trying to negate fears about costs. Warwick Vesey Solicitors come across as the latter. When it comes to criminal law firms in general, the sales pitch text on their websites can essen...


Parkview Solicitors & Higher Court Advocates: No, they don't do legal aid at all.. For example, you may have found this page using a search term like 'car crash' whilst the official title of such a case is 'road traffic accident' - often just abbreviated to RTA. Their general case range is one of litigation. It is ...


Rogers Personal Injury Solicitors: In fact, the web address they've asked us to use is not their main www.rogerssolicitors.ie one, but www.personalinjurysolicitor.ie which (as the name suggests) gives details and contact information for people looking to make a claim after being injured. But it doesn't stop t...


Waterstone Solicitors in London: This is not speculation either. we are a strong-minded and talented team of legal professionals ... Remember though, that when we say 'new' firm we're talking 'relative' amongst an industry where it's common for firms to state a 100+ year heritage - no matter how ten...


Three Graces Legal Liverpool: But if that is all we offered people, then that would mean having to come back and find a new solicitor for every case throughout your life. Best bet is to bookmark the site once you're sure you're on the correct one for later. . (We hope not of course!) There are people th...


Mason Baggott and Garton Solicitors: They have a family law department for things such as divorce and child custody. They have the standard customer reviews page but seem to focus on displaying reviews that mention staff by name. She came across as very personable and real which made her very easy to talk...


Bromets Jackson Heath LLP: The merging firm's owner, Maureen Freeman, has been appointed as an Associate Solicitor in the now increased family department. If you've ever come to 1to1Legal looking for a law firm before, you'll know that we have a hefty dislike for testimonial pages. On the 2...


MorganCarter Solicitors: That means, if the case loses, you don't have to pay anything.   - All calls and emails returned within 4 hours. We checked the usual variants and www.morgancarter.com is a completely different company.   - Majority of cases settled within 3 months of initial i...


Ropewalk Chambers Barristers: Obviously, not all the work required can be known ahead of time. Ropewalk Chambers is the latest to be included. They have dedicated Public Sector, Treasury Counsel and Not for Profit teams allowing them to provide expert assistance with anti-social behaviour, human rights, ...


Proddow Mackay Solicitors: The Sheffield office didn't actually open until 1998, and apparently was not even created to serve the general public's legal needs. However, we would recommend using a firm like ProddowMackay for commercial help if you are a small or medium sized business. We've fou...


Oonagh Burns and Emerald Law Solicitors: However, this is the only firm on our referral panel (and indeed that we have seen) that also serves Northern Ireland as part of their jurisdictional reach. With a name like "Emerald Law" and including a four leafed clover design in their logo - you'd expect them to be based...


Shaw Gibbs Business Insolvency LLP: Shaw Gibbs team of licensed insolvency practitioners and experts will try to find you amicable solutions to problems. Solicitors, accountants and other professionals refer people to Shaw Gibbs all the time, with creditors including HM Revenue & Customs, local authorities, ba...


Savants Insolvency London: www.savant.co.uk is the Savant Ltd company I've just mentioned before and both www.savants.com and www.savant.com are owned by different companies. class="infoquote "We depend on the quality of our people. For most of the firms we review on this site, we have not used...


Nesbit Law Firm: Asbestosis, Vibration White Finger, Industrial Deafness, Mesothelioma and so on are the well known resulting conditions from work environments in the UK - but that is not an exclusive list. They even cover claims against care homes if you or a loved one is in respite or...
