https://davidstinson.co.uk: On the David Stinson & Co website there is https: www.davidstinson.co.uk testimonials" a page marked 'Testimonials'< a> but there aren't any actual reviews on the page. This can often be misleading because if the firm has 5 solicitors with just 4 years experience - ...

https://mylawmatters.co.uk: We've even seen a divorce client leave a one star rating on a criminal law firm for not handling divorces. We can honestly say that in the past two decades we've never seen that happen . A mix of genders, ages, and years of experience amongst staff can only be a good thing ...


https://frazercoogans.co.uk: We've said it before but it's worth saying again - in our opinion 'established in ...' dates absolutely do not matter. So if the following article seems a little bias - that doesn't mean we haven't put Frazer Coogans through the regular checks first before coming to our conc...


https://burtonandco: class="infoquote "We combine the service you expect from a national brand with the local knowledge you need from our experienced legal team."< div> They actually have solicitors at the firm who joined the legal profession in nearly all of the past six decades. We...

https://ulasolicitors.com: A quick note on navigation. Reading between the lines, it's probably safe to assume they have confidence in their expertise and experience to handle such tasks.

https://taylorprice.co.uk: class="infoquote "Emails have been sent misusing the name and contact details of Taylor Price Solicitors. One that they seem to be offering face to face initial consultations for free at either of their Leeds or Levenshulme offices - not just a phone call with a juni...


https://michaelleightonjones.com: When you are flicking through law firm reviews remember that people are far less likely to share their feelings about their messy divorce than they are about the restaurant they just ate at. Some firms even make statements such as 'established in 1881' as if that will make p...


https://milnerslaw.com: Therefore it's very important for good firms to make sure they have such staff profiles. That may be confusing to use the word 'specialist' to describe both a firm that handles a single case range and one that covers a huge case range. Be aware however that legal ser...


https://krsep.co.uk: There are even options to resolve matters without using a solicitor at all such as Mediation in divorce proceedings. You are only getting what you pay for.

https://branchaustinmccormick.com: If you've read any of our other articles before, you'll know that we don't put a lot of stock in 'established in ...' ancient date claims by law firms.

https://trojansolicitors.com: The official site we link to above is www.trojansolicitors.com but currently www.trojansolicitors.co.uk does not redirect there. Does this make them not a 'specialist' firm then? They're certainly not a general practice firm covering every single type of case though. That ...

https://fultons-scotland.co.uk: But if a firm states 'we have thirty years of combined experience within the firm' - that could mean ten members of staff with just three years of experience each. A quote from one article says: class="infoquote "The deal will see Gildeas expand its total workforce by ...


https://hooperhyde.com: This, and the odd search results, shouldn't be a huge worry though as most scammers tend to target property clients as apparently it's very easy https: www.manningrivertimes.com.au story 7384427 scamwatch-keep-your-home-deposit-safe-from-scammers " to convince people to t...

https://argueandco.co.uk: Be clear though: no win, no fee only means that if you lose there are no fees. But not exactly what most people expect when calling. On one hand they imagine a larger firm will have larger resources to draw on and bigger 'clout' against third parties . That brings us back t...


https://springleandco.co.uk: We have written on a wide range of multi-practice firms over the years. Although that's probably not too much of a concern because typically scammers target property matters - not wills. The big difference though, is that a wedding planner doesn't need to know how to make a ...


https://blzsolicitors.co.uk: These four case types are not exactly the easiest or the best paying in relation to lawyer earnings elsewhere. One thing we have frequently quoted as a dislike on law firm's websites is the new wave of them sharing likes, dislikes, hobbies and favourite colours. Usually...


https://www.hawklaw.co.uk: A good range of seasoned experience alongside fresh blood and hopefully new ideas. That's because whilst people are quite happy to jump online and rave about their new toaster, they aren't so quick to discuss their divorce, bankruptcy, debts, or criminal defence case. ...


https://www.pacificlaw.co.uk: But the major mobile players we checked all direct 0800 for free now. So public comments from previous clients will probably not be available for some time.

Sometimes based on just a couple of official looking emails telling them to suddenly switch to paying their huge house deposit into a completely differ...


https://stenfield.com: Also at the moment neither www.stenfieldsolicitors.com or the .co.uk version are owned by anyone. But how are people feeling about the services they've received from Stenfield Solicitors? The firm doesn't have a testimonials page, but that's actually not a big issue for us...


https://khanlaw.co.uk: So Khan Law clearly stating the actual award is therefore quite a rarity and should not be overlooked. class="infoquote "Raees ... It may therefore be a good idea to bookmark the correct site to come back to it easier later. There is also a Khan Mather, Aina Khan ...

Whilst we...


https://www.trustinheritance.com: We've talked a lot before about specialists versus general practice firms. Clearly some mix up with company names in the area. With Wills & Probate though, this idea of specialism goes an extra step further. We don't just add anyone. The official site we link to ab...


https://bilkusandboyle.com: The majority of large conveyancing specialists have ratings as low as 2 or 3 stars. So where else can you search? class="infoquote "... it almost makes them meaningless. Typically one side is always unhappy at how a sale has gone either due to timescale, delays wi...


https://www.catteralls.co.uk: We did see the name 'Catterall Pell & Moxon' popping up, a branding that no longer operates. That's surely a very good sign.

https://penerley.co.uk: There's therefore been quite a surge in the number and type of legal service provider popping up to meet the demand. Penerleys only had three online reviews that we saw after digging through Google, Yell, Yelp and Trustpilot. Although https: www.theatlantic.com ...


https://www.searchbureau.co.uk: Also most of the fraud involved in conveyancing transactions tend to focus on actual buyer seller clients of the actual law firms. class="infoquote "We know that our clients want a hassle free and transparent service and that is exactly what we have designed."< div>. H...


https://educationlawservice.com: Not an insurer or other third party. So when you see that the law firm you're interested in does not have many reviews on the usual forums such as Google, Trustpilot, Yell or Yelp - don't read negatively into that . That's still much better of course than charging you full...

https://www.masonbullock.co.uk: There were obviously a few niggles in our research. Mason Bullock don't have a company-made testimonial section on their site either.

https://www.howe.co.uk: The firm did have testimonials on their website as well but at the time of us viewing they were stuffed into a tiny video-style playback box near the bottom of pages. All that put together clearly makes them a very established firm and it's hard to deny them the us...

https://www.levinslaw.co.uk: Most reviews are about their Criminal Law help and Conveyancing work.

https://www.aconveyancing.com: In law industry terms, that might sound quite young with so many companies boasting ancient foundings such as 'established in 1881'.

https://www.mcewanfraserlegal.co.uk: But you'd be wrong. If anyone emails or phones you about payments or bank details - do not respond. A quick word on navigation. class="infoquote "The service they provide is second to none, particularly the out of hours, 7 days a week availability" "very qu...


https://www.fieldfisher.com: Even more odd was the comment about them having 'very understanding traffic wardens'.
