Below is the guide which will help you to choose the right locksmith

It is suggested to hire a local professional locksmith rather using national call centres to hire a locksmith. They simply pass on the work to anyone in the particular area without a proper security check and also you cannot be sure about the quality of work.They can also charge more than the local MLA licensed locksmith.
