On your side !
Amazing service from Dexter, he really made me feel at ease about where I was at and the outcome we were aiming to get. Which in the end favoured me.
Dexter handled my situation as he overlooked and guided the solicitor who was present for my case.
I never had been in involve with the police, it was daunting and nerve racking, with beliefs that police are never there to help anyone but to convict and turn your own words against you. However, Dexter is definitely proven trustworthy and a solicitor that is on your side, with adequate knowledge and a very upfront approach of a situation.
I will not hesitate to ask Dexter for aid in my future stumbles but will also be the only solicitor for recommendation to my friends and family, who might need an expert in this field.
I can’t thank him enough for helping me keep my name clean!

Excellent service
In my really hard and stressful situation, my solicitor Chanelle Wray, handled it in the best way possible. She is very professional, and went above and beyond to get the best outcome for my case and the charges were dropped. I had never been in a situation like this before which was really scary for me but Chanelle was very helpful, understanding and very supportive which really helped me personally. She gave me great advice and also a clear understanding to all the questions and concerns I had. She even went the extra mile to help me get access to certain documents I needed which I really appreciated. My experience with Chanelle was definitely the best and I do recommend her.

Crime
Chanelle Wray is an exceptional solicitor. Her knowledge and expertise was very reassuring. She maintained regular contact, kept me well informed at each stage of the process and was very friendly and approachable. Through her hardwork and excellent representation to the CPS, they decided discontinue the case against me. I am so thankful to my friend who recommended the firm.

Very good.
I have used Dexter Henry & Co since I was 16years old (6 years) and they have a really good understanding for people who suffer with mental health. They are always easy to contact and will get back to you if they miss a call, very efficient. Staff are friendly and professional however will talk to you on a personal level which makes you feel comfortable. Unfortunately I have had multiple cases and charges but with DH&CO I’ve always received great representation, resulting in good sentencing from the courts.
