Trusted, highly professional service

5

Luke provided me with great advice on my situation within tight timescales and was realistic about the options available to me. Having to use legal services was a new and daunting endeavour for me, but Lindsey and Luke explained the process and charging structure clearly. I would highly recommend Luke and Menzies Law, and I would definitely use them again if the need arose.
