Check you are searching the right area of law

Use our Legal Issues Guide to find the most likely area of law that your issue falls under.

Expand your search

If you are searching for a solicitor that works in a particular area of law and you are not getting any results in your location, try expanding the search area (up to 100kms).

Use the firm search

Search for firms in your local area using the “Law Firm” button.

Go through the list and visit some of the firm websites – you’ll often find more detailed information about the type of issues the firm handles and the way they like to work by doing this.

You’ll be able to see the solicitors that work for these firms too.
