    You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.

    Where are you checking for the solicitors? They could be inhouse in which case they will not be listed elsewhere.

    So - not going to apply for a job with them then?

    By the way, listed where? I don't think they are in the phone book, but it didn't take me long to find the website.

    Moorcroft are listed on the Companies House website as a registered company, but if you want to check an individual solicitor or firm go to the Law Society site https://www.lawsociety.org.uk

    Every solicitor in England and Wales has to be listed with them. Firms have to register and confirm which solicitors are practising, so you'd be able to check through them.

    I work for a law firm and this is a regulatory requirement for all our lawyers.
