Reviews that say where they come from
Google reviews are labelled as Google’s. Legaltica reviews can only be written with a single-use link, are published whatever the rating, and no firm can pay to remove them.
How reviews work (ES)
Profiles are compiled from public information: the firm’s Google profile, its website and professional directories. Only the owner can edit theirs, after proving it’s theirs.
