Try and use Mr Weed as much as possible, very good solicitor. Mr T - Manchester
This is just a short letter of appreciation and to say thanks to Nick Terry for all of his help and assistance in relation to the allegation against me. Rarely in these times do people receive any thanks or recognition for their performance at work. Nick spent some considerable time with me whilst in custody at the police station. I found him to be both friendly and professional. Knowledgeable about legislation and police procedures. There is little doubt that the quality and content of the prepared statements prepared by Nick had a positive impact on the result of my case. Mr D - West Yorkshire
Big thank you to Erin Cowley for all of her hard work on my partners case which had the best turn out we could of had! Erin was always willing to work outside of her office hours for us and would never fail to make my partner feel like he was in the best hands as he really was, I just really can't thank Erin enough for everything, I will always remember what she had done for us and I will continue to praise her to my friends and family and most of all I highly recommend Erin! If ever I even needed a little reassurance I could call Erin and she would 100% make me feel better about any worries I had at the time, I have never worked with somebody so professional and so honest yet so friendly at the same time, I will never forget this case because it was a horrendous time for me and my partner but mostly i'll never forget how much worse it may have been if we had anybody else representing us. Thanks You so much from the bottom of my heart once again!! Testimonial - Miss Carr - Manchester
Yvonne instructed me to represent a client facing vast and complex allegations of conspiracy to defraud. She was able through a total dedication to our client’s case to provide him with great reassurance and inspire his confidence. With her help we were able to encourage him to properly engage with the real issues in his case. It was my pleasure to lead for the defence with Yvonne in the team and fighting our corner with all her energy, drive and enthusiasm. She showed excellent client care skills and was always charming, engaging and good humoured. The fact that we won so many of the important issues in the case was in no small measure due to her industry and client care skills. When Yvonne says she will do something, she does it without question or hesitation and with a total commitment to the client and the matter in hand. It was a pleasure to work with Yvonne in this case and I look forward to the next opportunity. Counsel P - London
