You have a previous refusal where they got you on funds parking. Hopefully you are in a position to make a better presentation to the decision-maker.

And the main point of reference for finding a solicitor is the UK Law Society.
I would also recommend that you make a careful read of Should I submit bank statements when applying for a UK Visa? What do they say about me? before assembling your evidence. There's more background reading at proof-provenance-of-funds.
