Is there a genuine firm or person?

The SRA authorises and regulates a genuine firm of solicitors called Lodders Solicitors LLP (SRA ID 465376). The SRA also authorises and regulates a genuine solicitor called Mark Miller (SRA ID 2736).

What should I do?

Other verification methods, such as checking public records (e.g. telephone directories and company records) may be required in other circumstances.
