Best Solicitor
Ms Corr, was nothing short of exceptional caring and professional in handling my case. Despite being based in London she personally visited me in Cardiff and her advice and support was invaluable.
[See More]She robustly and fiercely defended all aspects of my case ensuring that no stone was left unturned and kept me informed at every stage. She was very prompt in answering my queries and I would say possibly the best solicitor you could ever hope for.
Her relentless determination to defend me and also explain complex law simply was very much appreciated alongside her genuine caring approach to what was one of the most traumatic experiences in my life.
As a result she achieved the best result for me and got serious charges dropped before trial. I am very grateful for her assistance.
Anyone who is in need of criminal defence services, I would not hesitate to at all to recommend Ms Corr, she is exceptional.

Madeleine was absolutely brilliant. Very honest from the start and made it clear that she would give her all to get the best outcome for me. She was always at the end of the phone if I needed to speak to her. I am delighted with the outcome and would recommend her fully.

More than a lawyer - A lifeline
I can’t express enough gratitude for the incredible support and expertise my lawyer has provided during the most challenging time of my life. As someone who has had no involvement with the law, finding myself in the middle of a criminal investigation that separated me from my child was overwhelming, and completely alien to me. From the moment I spoke with my lawyer, an impossible situation felt that much more manageable.
[See More]Her dedication, calm and empathetic nature, and sensitivity around my case was beyond anything I could have imagined. And her legal proficiency, proactive approach and consideration has ultimately led to a NFA (No Further Action required) in my case, with unwavering support from herself throughout.
Madeleine at every moment made me feel heard, respected and seen in what has been an incredibly isolating and heartbreaking situation. I can’t thank her enough, and I would not hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who needs not only a brilliant and experienced criminal lawyer, but also a true advocate by their side.

Incredible
I’m over the moon, and honestly, words don’t quite capture how grateful I am. Thank you so much for all your support and guidance. From our very first call, your calm and reassuring approach helped ease my anxiety about the situation. After speaking with a few other potential representatives, it was your optimism and clarity that stood out. In what felt like an overwhelming and possibly hopeless scenario, you gave me the confidence to believe there was still a way forward. I’m so glad I trusted my instincts and that we approached this together with confidence and determination. Just as you said, I can finally put this behind me. Thank you so much again for all your help. Phew!!

Written representation for a caution
Facing a caution for common assault, I was concerned about the potential impact on my future employment, particularly given the required DBS checks in my field. Madeleine expertly guided me through the process and options and then put together a written representation. Her responsiveness and clear communication allowed for a quick turnaround, even under tight deadlines. She managed expectations well. Despite the challenging circumstances, Madeleine successfully persuaded the police to consider a community resolution, a far more favourable outcome that would not be reflected in standard DBS checks. I am immensely grateful for her expertise and highly recommend her services.
