Representation in court

Stephen represented me in court and managed to achieve my desired result with a conviction that the police were trying to charge me with that wasn’t my fault. He was outstanding and very professional. I would highly recommend

Poor and incriminating advise

Stephen gave me poor advise. He discouraged Me from going down a route that would have avoided a criminal charge on my DBS. He even advised me incorrectly stating driving penalties do not go onto my DBS. I wiuld not recommend Stephen again.

Excellent solicitor

I can’t thank Stephen enough for his outstanding support during a difficult time. He represented me in a serious driving offence case and secured a significant reduction in charges. Thanks to him, I can still provide for my family. He was always available to answer every question I had, with clear and prompt communication. His dedication and expertise gave me real peace of mind. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a top-tier legal advocate.

Stephen and Heather are so professional and knowledgeable of this sector. I needed guidance and support of what I was about to face to obtain the best outcome for me. Clear direction was given to me by meeting me in person and with follow up emails with what I needed to do. Police interviews with them present and then court proceedings. They assisted in getting me the best possible outcome which I am truly grateful. Without them I would most definitely faced a driving ban.

Thank you for taking the time to write this. It’s appreciated. I’m pleased we were able to guide you through each stage—from the police interview through to court—and make sure you knew exactly what to expect and what was needed from you. That clarity can make a real difference in how a case progresses. I’m glad the outcome avoided a driving ban and that the support we provided helped you get there. Stephen

Very well looked after

I approached Stephen Oldham solicitors very last minute due to a change in circumstances. With bitterly 48hrs to review my case form my defence and attendance in court they got straight to work. The outcome was also a very good one. I'd highly recommend this company

I honestly don’t think I could have got through this without Stephen Oldham and David Swingler. What I went through was one of the most stressful moments of my life, and I’m so grateful I had them on my side. From the very first call, Stephan was clear, professional, and gave me real confidence that I was in safe hands. And then in court, David was absolutely outstanding. From the moment I met him, I felt like I wasn’t alone anymore. He was calm, sharp, and completely in control not just doing his job, but genuinely caring. Between them, they achieved a result I truly didn’t think was possible. I walked out feeling a level of relief I can’t even describe. If you’re going through something difficult and need people you can truly trust, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second. I’m genuinely grateful hats off to both of them.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and generous review. I am truly grateful for your kind words and am very pleased we were able to support you through such a difficult and stressful time. David will both really appreciate reading this. Wishing you all the very best going forward.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Stephen Oldham for the excellent legal support and representation he provided in my case. From the very beginning, Stephen handled my matter with professionalism, clarity, and reassurance. He took the time to explain the legal process, kept me updated throughout, and ensured that everything was handled properly and efficiently. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, the Crown Prosecution Service ultimately discontinued the case against me, which brought immense relief to me and my family. What I particularly appreciated was Stephen’s calm and supportive approach. Facing a court matter can be very stressful, but his guidance and experience made the process much easier to understand and manage. I highly recommend Stephen Oldham Solicitors to anyone who needs professional and reliable legal representation. I would not hesitate to work with him again if needed in the future. Thank you again for your outstanding service. Jeffrey

I am so thankful I read previous reviews and chose Stephen Oldham to represent me in court. His professionalism, knowledge and expertise was outstanding, and his attention to detail absolutely incredible. It had been an extremely stressful time for me, and I prepared myself for the very worst. Stephen was honest at at times, calm and confident, he guided me through a very complicated case. advising me where necessary to produce the best defence. He was caring throughout which helped me enormously, updating me at all times. The results were far exceeding my expectations. I cannot thank him enough. Definitely the best solicitor by far. Thank you so much Stephen.

Satisfied customer

Stephen was a great help and definitely worth employing when I unfortunately had to attend court for a speeding offence, this could have really affected my livelihood and ability to work and Stephen managed to defend my case very well and get a minimal charge of a 3 week driving ban and no points, having been caught over 100mph on the motorway due to lack of concentration and following the car ahead.

I didn't find Stephen laid out my case strongly and subsequently I didn't get the outcome I planned for, I could have represented myself and achieved the same if not better outcome, it was not good value for money.
