Rated 4.5 or above
There are 39 SRA-regulated firms in Dorset. 33 carry a verified Google rating (85%), averaging 4.5 stars across 2,794 reviews, and 20 are rated 4.5 or above. That is 0.17 of a star above the national average of 4.33, measured across 2,980 rated firms of 3,477.
Size is not quality. One-office firms average 4.38 stars on a £1,200 median fee across 689 firms; firms with two to four offices 4.31 on £1,200 across 505; five to nine offices 4.21 across 119; and firms with ten or more offices average 4.09 on a £1,500 median across 29 firms. National firms cost about £300 more and rate 0.29 lower, and the rating falls steadily as the office count rises.
A rating only appears here once we have verified the Google listing belongs to the firm, checking the phone number, the domain, the postcode, the trading names and the business type. 2,980 of 3,477 firms carry a rating we can defend; the rest say “No rating” rather than guess, because an unverified match can attach a supermarket's stars to a law firm. Fees are shown too, but they are the second question here.
For reference, the median freehold purchase legal fee in Dorset is £1,448 across 22 firms publishing fees.
