Avoid.

I would urge anyone considering using MAJ Law to proceed with caution. I will not go into full detail as I have an active legal case pending, but I can comment on my personal experience. From the outset, the service felt inconsistent. I initially dealt with Connor Johnstone, then Harry Bellis, and later Osian Roberts. The constant changes made the process feel disjointed and difficult to follow. The time of my first hearing was not confirmed, and across the matter I ended up with three different barristers, none of whom appeared fully briefed when arriving at court. This caused significant concern and left me feeling unsupported at key stages. Communication from the office was also poor. On one occasion I was asked by a staff member, Simon Booth, to pull over on the motorway to make a payment. I was also told at one point that my file was fully paid, only to be contacted the day before a second trial requesting a further substantial sum. That hearing lasted around five minutes and was adjourned. Due to the accumulation of issues, I felt I had no choice but to dismiss the firm from representing me. I requested a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill, which was declined. I am now pursuing the matter through the appropriate legal channels. MAJ Law have my contact details and I remain open to resolving the dispute directly. However, based on my experience, I cannot recommend the service.

Thank you so much!

I have just been let off a drug driving charge and I am absolutely over the moon! The odds were completely stacked against me and I didn’t think I had a chance at all. I put all my faith (and savings) into MAJ believing they’d kept me the outcome and they did. I cannot recommend enough. They’ve saved my life.

Cannot thank them enough.

I honestly cannot thank M.A.J Law enough for the support they gave my son during one of the worst and most frightening periods of our lives. From the very first phone call, they treated him with dignity, compassion and complete professionalism, without ever making him feel judged or like “just another case”. As a mother, seeing your child facing a drink driving charge is heartbreaking, and the stress and uncertainty were overwhelming for all of us. But the team at M.A.J Law immediately put us at ease with their calm, knowledgeable and reassuring approach. What stood out most to me was how genuinely invested they were in helping him achieve the best possible outcome. They explained everything clearly at every stage, kept us updated regularly and were always available to answer questions, no matter how small. Their attention to detail and expertise in motoring law were obvious from the beginning, and it quickly became clear that we had made the right decision instructing them. On the day of court, their solicitor was absolutely outstanding. Confident, professional and incredibly well prepared, they represented my son in a way that gave him the best chance moving forward with his life. The outcome achieved was far better than we had feared, and I truly believe that would not have happened without M.A.J Law fighting his corner so thoroughly. What could have been a devastating situation felt much more manageable because of the care, reassurance and dedication shown by the entire team. They never made unrealistic promises, but they worked tirelessly and honestly from start to finish. I will always be grateful for the support they gave not only to my son, but to our whole family during such a difficult time. If anyone is facing a drink driving allegation and feels scared or unsure of where to turn, I would urge them to speak to M.A.J Law. Their professionalism, knowledge and genuine care for their clients are second to none.

AVOID MAJ LAW AT ALL COSTS!

AVOID MAJ LAW AT ALL COSTS Most reviews of MAJ are fake. I paid them £3500, and they didn't even turn up to court. Wouldn't let me speak with my solicitor whenever I called. I had to pay for a different solicitor, and MAJ won't refund my money they did nothing for. I will remove this review if they reimburse me.

Fantastic!

5 stars through and through! Couldn’t ask for a better company to deal with my son’s drink driving case. Made a very stressful time completely stress free. Thank you!
