https://cullimoredutton.co.uk: That's a good checklist of information. Not so many firms are forthcoming with such details, especially those trying to disguise their levels of experience. We've genuinely never seen another firm do that in the 20+ years we've been writing about the legal industry. So the...


https://smithandgraham.co.uk: That's becomes even more important to remember due to the firm handling property matters which have been hit but huge amounts of fraud in recent years. Don't just flick through average ratings. A quick note on navigation with the firm having an 'and'. The numbe...

https://mark-croft-solicitor.co.uk: This statement is clear as it means Mark Croft himself has 28 years of experience . It's a shame the Scottish and Irish do not have such a resource. However, if you see phrasing such as '20 years of combined experience' or '20 years of experience within the firm' - that...


https://walkerfoster.com: You need to search for reviews on each individual office - e.g. Sadly, the up and coming generation doesn't seem as savvy when it comes to spotting an advert.

https://defanksolicitors.com: It's much harder to find firms that list general costs for other matters because of how varied they can be. However that is not the way for things like Criminal Law.

https://evelake.co.uk: This is actually more significant than you might first think. If they are not on your mortgage lender's panel then there could be an extra fee required (at the very least) so it's something to check on before signing on the dotted line with any conveyancer.

https://tlps.co.uk: A site we've often praised and sadly without good counterparts in Scotland or Ireland yet. With much more flexibility these days in working placements, you could find a 40-year veteran solicitor at a 1-year old law firm and a 1-year novice at a 200-year old firm. Unf...
