Having just been quoted ?600 for initial assessment of my case and then searching reviews of the firm only to find they are baaaaad.....am on the lookout for recommendations. It's one thing paying a lot of money but not getting a decent service after paying would drive me bonkers.

Please, if you have used a decent solicitor/law firm, let me have details.

Thanks

Hall & Co up near Dulwich library .


I've only used them in the most minimal way - swearing an affadavit for which they charged ?6 ,was going to use for a biggerlease related issue but transpired that there was a conflict of interest ( already working for another party ) .

But I found very pleasant and approachable .

Although I have no experience with them professionally, Bilmes Solicitors sponsors Streatham and Marlborough Cricket Club (which is at the bottom end of Lordship Lane), and I'm generally in favour of supporting organisations that support local clubs etc., so might be worth considering.

    • Because the council responsible for it is far-left....   And you haven't answered whether it is worth diverting emergency vehicles because a few cars drive through the LTN and why some lobby groups have been so desperate to close it to emergency vehicles.    Emergency services hate non-permeable junctions as they lengthen response times....f you remember it's why the council had to redesign the DV junction because emergency services kept telling them they needed to be able to drive through it...but the council resisted and resisted until they finally relented because the emergency services said their LTN had increased response times....sorry if the truth gets in the way of a good story but those are facts. The council was putting lives at risk because they refused to open the junction to emergency services. Why? What could have been the motivation for that? So, in fact, it was the emergency services who forced the council (kicking and screaming) to remove the permanent barriers and allow emergency services access. So the council finally opened the junction to emergency services and is now coming back to re-close part of the junction.  Why?  Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway.   In time, I am sure the truth will come to light and those rewponsbile will be held accountable but you have to admit there is something very unusual going on with that junction - its the very definition of a (very expensive) white elephant.
