Law Firm Websites - free assessment

26.09.07 Solicitors Firms Websites - some good, a lot terrible!

We have decided to offer a new service to law firms who register vacancies with us. This will be free, and the only catch to it will be that we must be allowed to publish an article on our site about our findings. We will analyse a firm's website free of charge.

Firstly, we will give the firm a breakdown of how popular their site is, what their ranking is for searches in Google, and how visible the website is (eg - have they linked with www.solicitors-online.com?).

Secondly, we will check the site for inconsistencies, spelling mistakes or grammatical errors popular with web designers.

Thirdly, we will rate the site on how efficient it is at what it is supposed to be doing - ie selling the firm, providing an online service, and setting the firm apart from others of a similar nature.

Fourthly we will give a forthright view on what improvements could be made - whether the site accurately reflects the firm, and does the job the firm wants it to.
We will then send all this information through to our client firms, and publish the same on our website. What have you got to lose? Well, you get a link from our site, which is usually high up on google rankings for our required keywords, and you also get free publicity for your website which you would otherwise not have...

Interested? Simply contact us with your vacancies, and give us permission to look at your site and name your firm on our site! Hopefully our directory will become a benchmark for the industry to look at, and publicise the website designers who are any good for law firms and solicitors, and those who are awful!

Overpaid Charity CEOs - top 40 of high paid employees - updated 2022

In 2014, we wrote an article about high pay in the charity sector after the Charity Commission started to require all charities to disclose pay of senior executives earning more than £60,000.    We have updated the list for 2022, with a comparison chart so you can see the difference between 2014 and 2022.

3rd class degree holders - advice from www.ten-percent.co.uk Legal Recruitment Consultants

07/05/08 Third class degree – should I be looking to become a lawyer? A question we are asked quite regularly by law students is whether they should be looking to start a legal career if they only have a third class degree (sometimes this can be a 2:2 as well). If you have a third class degree it is important to bear in mind the main issue, which is that quite a few firms, if not the vast majority, use the class of a degree as a benchmark to determine whether or not to shortlist that person for interview. Third class degree applicants are very easy to filter, as it is the perfect excuse to get rid of a reasonably sized number of applicants without needing to read the CV. If you see it from the firm’s perspective, if you have 100 CVs for one training contract position then filtering them out via this method is an easy way of reducing the number without needing to do very much work at all or think about it. So I suppose in one sense, it is so difficult to find a training contract with a ...

Is it possible to work as a Paralegal when you are a Qualified Solicitor

  This question comes up all the time and is quite a common query that we imagine the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) are getting better at answering due to the sheer number of people asking the question. Many years ago the advice seemed a bit varied at times, but we have recently had a candidate who wanted to work in a locum role in the short term and waiting to go back on the Roll and get a practising certificate after some time spent outside the profession. She has been given fairly concise advice on whether she could work as a paralegal whilst waiting to be readmitted which we are repeating here. This article is written as a discussion point and is not intended to be advice in any shape or form. For full advice on your particular set of circumstances please speak to the SRA (or whoever else you like, but please do not depend on the information in this article!). The SRA have a simple online test to determine if you need a practising certificate and th...
