Police Custody CC allegations
Laurie helped me go through stressful period where I faced long list of false allegations by my ex-husband who was abusing the public resources and wasting police time to retaliate me filing for divorce using twisted narratives and playing victim cards to get me arrested for coercive control to cover his own controlling behaviours including taking all my years of my full-time incomes by lying and continuing to refuse my access to my moneys post divorce to deprive me financially. Laurie helped me liaise with police case officer and provided her support as best as she could.

Police Custody DV allegations
Laurie Learmont attended the police station I was being detained at and represented me through legal aid. The false allegations made by my ex wife for historic domestic violence were simply not true and extremely distressing to hear. Laurie empathetically listened, assisted me during interview and upon my release regularly liaised with my family law Russell & Russell Solicitor and the Police.

Amazing work
So I've been with Russell and Russell for years now
But on my last case I couldn't thank Laurie and her team so much for what she done
She was more than helpful easy to speak to and went above and beyond to help me amazing work

Positive feedback
I found myself in a situation to say the least.
I was recommended Laurie via someone I know and straight from the start she couldn’t have been more helpful.
Fully explained the charge, fully explained the sentencing guidelines and was there every step of the way.
Nothing was too much.
She’s a credit to Russell & Russell.
In the nicest possible way I hope we never speak again but if I ever need a solicitors she will be getting a call.

Brilliant Firm
Russell & Russell have always been brilliant throughout the years we have used them, they are fast knowledgeable and kept the family informed throughout. Laurie was fantastic last evening when she came out to see my brother in the early hours. She was professional, but also kind and understanding.
Our family is very grateful for all the work that Laurie, Harry, Adam and team have done over the last few years.
