I had the pleasure of receiving legal aid through Marcela.
I was very nervous given my situation and there were layers of information that I didn't fully understand. This can be incredibly unsettling when you are in a position of legal and custodial uncertainty.
Marcela covered all of the possible outcomes and what I could do to mitigate the repercussions.
She was thorough in answering any of my questions and was particularly sharp on the day of my sentencing, reading the magistrates with an intuitive eye.
I believe Marcela represented me to an exceptional standard and I am incredibly grateful for her advice, time & proactivity during my case.

I appointed Jim to act as my solicitor in a criminal case.
From initial charge until the end of proceedings, he was absolutely fantastic.
No query was ever looked upon as to big or small, Jim would always return my call/email with an answer to my query. Would highly recommend!!
