When we mentioned to someone that our conveyancing solicitor was Hugh Feeney they remarked "Huge…read moreFee, eh"? We had already mentioned to the solicitor that our property was slightly different in terms of how it was mortgaged as it was a cornish unit. He failed to remember this and it was clear he hadn't read the documentation sent to him. When our mortgage was delayed due to the solicitors error, I had to ring him up and point out the points on documentation he had missed! While I didn't find the fee's ridiculous, what I did find outrageous is that the solicitor had not done his job properly. He tried to make out that our mortgage broker was at fault when clearly it was his mistake. That annoyed me more than anything else, trying to blame his error on someone else who had done a sterling job. Feeney & Co was recommended to me by my mother in law who found them charming. After that incident, the house sale went smoothly but I lost trust and respect as a result of trying to blame the incident on someone who had been really helpful.

From my and alot of my clients experiences of Feeny & Co solicitors that review is not accurate and…read morei wouldn't bother yourself reading it. Hugh Feeny has had over 500 clients a year for aprox 15 years and this is the only bad review he has ever received. I have myself used him for 10 years and have never once been let down by his services, in fact I've always been highly impressed by his costumer care and his ability to always know the right thing to do! His fees are extremely reasonable for such a fantastic service, and are alot cheaper than alot of other firms who frankly do not give half as good a service as Mr Feeny. I would recommend Feeny & Co solicitors to anyone that asked me above any other firm, (and trust me I've used alot in my time) and Mr Feeny always does his job properly.

Lloyd and Rowe Solicitors is a pretty understated, large shop fronted firm of solicitors on the…read moreCity Road. They don't give much away in terms of advertising what they do, there's not a single sign in sight, and they are woefully badly represented on the internet as well. I recently tried to help a friend find a personal injury specialist as he had a nasty accident when cycling back from work. He has very little recollection of the accident, but several witnesses have stated that owing to heavy traffic he was forced to cycle over a deep pothole that flung him headfirst off his bike. His facial and dental injuries are substantial, and his loss of earnings alone amount to a significant sum. He has been really poorly as a consequence, and is facing huge bills to correct the damage sustained. He is not litigious in nature, and is resistant to the idea of making a claim. I am just one of his many friends who have looked into the idea of a personal injury claim, as he was unwilling, and too unwell to consider doing this himself. Lloyd and Rowe Solicitors was one of the firms that I tried to look into on his behalf, but I soon dispensed with the idea of recommending them, when all of my research could come up with was a criminal prosecution brought against one of the partners. Mr Lloyd of Lloyd and Rowe Solicitors apparently had a low impact accident on the M4 when driving at two and a half times over the legal alcohol limit. He was accordingly banned from driving for 18 months. Hardly the best commendation for his firm!

The case was a very specialist case. As an advocate to this vulnerable woman she is now liberated from the clutches of her heritage. Thank you Llloyd and Rowe solicitors. I would highly recommend them. I would agree with Rachel regarding the shop front and the information available on the internet and perhaps from the reviews the firm will take some action and turn around their negative image.

The lady at the counter didn't mind that I was only there to take advantage of their photocopier. She happily went upstairs and copied 5 sheets for me. Whilst I was waiting, I had a nosey round the shop and thought it was great. Their motto is 'Help yourself or we'll help you'. There was a 'help-yourself' section where you could pick up leaflets and peruse the law books in their own free library. The 'we'll help you' aspect of the shop was great too. You could get free legal advice from the team at the Law shop or change your name. There may be a time when I need to use these things and I'm sure The Law Shop will be a great starting point.

There are a couple of other Chartered…read moreAccountants on this commercial strip of Whitchurch Road, making the area a bit of a professional Mecca in some respects. As it also has a number of great cafes and restaurants, there's something to soften the blow of being informed that you face a hefty tax bill at the end of the financial year... cup of tea anyone! There's very little to differentiate Dowle Horrigan Chartered Accountants from G Marino & Co. just a little ways up the road. Both are Chartered Accountants and registered Auditors. So, essentially they both perform company audits, prepare annual accounts, maintain monthly accounts, and handle book keeping and wages on behalf of their clients. They also handle tax returns and VAT returns. This means that they manage everything from individual accounts for self employed people to big business clients. They also deal with business start-ups and offer corporate advice. There's one thing that Dowle Horrigan Chartered Accountants do that I don't think G Marino & Co. do... they also perform investigations... so anyone cooking the books had better watch out!

I was quoted £190 which included such pesky things as cleaning of the ovens, inside windows, and shower screens (three chores that are not in my talent bank when it comes to house work). You could add on additionals such as carpet cleaning, outside windows and wall washing, but I didn't think this would be necessary for an end of tenancy cleaning. If it was my own place and I wanted a thorough spring clean, then I'd definitely consider this as I think it was really good value for money, especially considering I didn't need to lift a finger to clean anything. SO GOOD. I love a clean house, and I feel like I'm constantly running around cleaning mine, so to not have to do this was such a treat!

This ranges from the more obvious media relations and event management type of services to crisis communications, internal staff communications, and web content. Their client list includes several well known Welsh bodies including the Welsh Assembly Government, Careers Wales Gwent, UNESCO Cymru Wales and the Welsh Language Board, and they've worked with private sector companies in a range of industries - including managing S4C's digital switchover campaign. Their website provides a decent range of case studies showing the results achieved for a range of their clients, and latest news from the company. Apparently, last Saturday the Working Word team were part of an attempt to break the record for the world's largest language lesson at SkillsCymru, Wales's largest careers and skills event - but there's no update yet as to whether or not they succeeded!
