Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Carolyn qualified as a Legal Executive in 1992, specialising in family law. She studied, whilst working full time, and qualified as a Solicitor in 2005. Having specialised in Family law for over 30 years, Carolyn has gained a wealth of knowledge and expertise which enables her to give clear, informed advice to her clients and work towards achieving the best outcome possible. Many of Carolyn’s clients come to her from personal recommendation. Carolyn encourages her clients to try and resolve matters amicably and without the need for Court proceedings, wherever possible. However, sometimes a more robust approach is necessary and she is able to effectively argue a client’s case both in direct dealings with an opponent and in Court. Instructing a Solicitor is sometimes viewed as a daunting prospect. Carolyn’s aim is to offer a friendly, efficient service to her clients and deal with any concerns they may have, from the outset.

ReviewSolicitors Suitability Check

How the Suitability Check works

The ReviewSolicitors Suitability Check is designed to help you understand whether a law firm may be suitable for your legal matter and to support you in deciding what to do next.

It brings together information from publicly available sources, regulatory data, and verified client reviews and ratings to make it easier to compare law firms and connect with a solicitor who may be suited to your needs.

ReviewSolicitors works with thousands of law firms across the UK, many of whom actively collect client reviews through our platform. We aim to make it as simple and seamless as possible for you to find, compare, and connect with a law firm that may be able to help with your matter.

However, the information shown here is based on data that is updated periodically. Solicitors can move between law firms, law firms may change the areas of law they offer, and capacity to take on new client matters can vary over time.

Checks on whether a law firm is accepting new clients are carried out on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the information available to us. While this helps keep information up to date, we cannot guarantee that all details will always be accurate at the time you view them.

In some cases, a law firm may appear as “Not accepting new clients through ReviewSolicitors” because they are not actively engaged with us or have not confirmed their availability. They may still be accepting new clients directly, and if you are unsure, it is always best to contact the law firm directly to confirm their expertise, availability, and whether they have the capacity to handle your matter.

Butters David Grey LLP

National Average

83%

About this score

This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

Success
Rate

Satisfied with outcome

Butters David Grey LLP

National Average

82%

About this score

This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like. When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.
