How to choose a solicitor
Our 'find a solicitor' search facility allows you to find a local solicitor who meets your personal requirements.
Specialism
Choose a solicitor who is a specialist in the particular area of law in which you need help. Choosing an expert will mean your case is dealt with quickly and effectively. Some solicitors have earned accreditation as specialists in a particular subject by passing strict tests set by the Independent Solicitors Regulation Authority. Areas of speciality include conveyancing, injury, immigration and family based advice.
Location
You will normally need to visit the solicitor's office at least once so finding one in a location that is convenient to you is important.
Legal aid / public funding
If you are concerned you will not be able to afford to pay your legal fees you may need a solicitor who offers legal aid.
Foreign languages
If English is not your first language you may want to see a solicitor who is fluent in the same language as you or can speak the language of the country where you are, for example, buying overseas property.
Female solicitor
The particular nature of your problem may mean you will be more comfortable speaking to a female solicitor.
Disabled access
Finding a legal firm whose offices have disabled access will make life easier if you have mobility problems.
