In the US we have Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses that do this; are there any similar in the UK and what kind of religion do they proselytize?

Solicitors in the UK are what you'd call lawyers in the US. And generally no, not in my experience. I think I had Jehovah's Witnesses around once 20 years ago.

We've had a few in recent years, but they're generally pretty happy to bugger off if you say no politely.
