Professional and supportive

5

Eleanor Dobson is a very patient, kind and empathetic solicitor, whilst being extremely professional, she also proved to be caring and supportive. Eleanor gave clear and concise advice, and explained everything in detail. Even when I was struggling to cope and understand, she patiently advised me. I think she makes an amazing Solicitor and is a credit to your firm!

Elenor Dobson was fine and appeared to do her job but everyone else proved to be an absolute bunch of shills. Ignored instructions, gaslit me and through my case, misrepresented me and even asked irrelevant questions about my partners PIP to get a maximum fine in sentencing. PIP is nothing to do with me or them.
It was also apparent they had shared communications with the crown due to the fact my accusers story changed after they were made. To add insult to injury incorrect information was given about my medication during sentencing and when I tried to speak up heads were turned away and I was ignored
To clarify, the person they are asking me to review is not the barrister that caused this bad review, but that’s what happened in my experience. I only met Eleanor once so it ludicrous to ask me to review her and think I’ll forget who was actually there on the day that mattered

Absolutely outstanding

5

Eleanor Dobson was the duty solicitor for my daughter some months ago. She very quickly got a grip of the details and implications of my daughter's case; she was articulate, clearly knowledgeable and widely experienced. Eleanor was also very honest about the possible outcomes that my daughter might face, which she empathetically discussed with us. My daughter felt that Eleanor genuinely wanted the best outcome for her and this helped her a great deal to get through a very difficult day. There was a lot of waiting around and Eleanor kept us updated on the progress of my daughter's case. We are convinced that Eleanor's emphatic and lucid defence played a significant part in my daughter receiving a community service order instead of a custodial sentence. We were very lucky to get Eleanor that day. She is pure gold.
