Excellent outcome in case

Had an excellent experience with Bobby from McGovern Reid. Bobby got 3 charges I faced dropped to 1 charge and after negotiations he got the wording in the 1 charge reduced dramatically. He is an extremely good lawyer and his approach helped me get an excellent outcome in court, I think even he was shocked with how good it was. He helped put my mind more at ease and genuinely cares about fighting to get you the best outcome possible. Not only that but he got my court date brought forward so I could put this behind me quicker. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges. Thanks again for all your hard work

Driving offences

Representation for road traffic offence

We went to McGovern Reid regarding a road traffic offence we were defended by Bobby Reid who from the outset brought calmness to a worrying situation He had the case deferred for special circumstance he then asked us to provide documentation which we did and one the day gave us sound advise . He presented both himself and our defence in a very professional manner and in the end the case was admonished Very professional law firm who I would recommend to anyone requiring legal advise 10/10 Well done

I had an excellent experience with Bobbie Reid and would highly recommend his services. Without going into the details of the case, Bobbie was extremely effective in court and gave me full confidence throughout the whole process. At every stage, he conducted himself professionally and clearly had a strong understanding of the situation, the legal process, and what needed to be done. He struck me as highly intelligent, well-rounded, clear in his approach, and completely non-judgemental. I always felt he had a genuine intent to achieve the best possible outcome and that I could trust him to handle things to the very best of his ability. If I ever need legal help again, I would come straight back to Bobbie and the team.

Frances covered my case and got my charge down from a mandatory ban to points and a fine which led to me keeping my license, I highly recommend McGovern Reid lawyers for their service.

Been using McGovern Reid for a few years now and couldn’t ask for any more from them. I’ve been represented by Matthew, Bobby, Tom, Frances and Molly on different occasions and had great results every time. Their professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. A very tight knit law firm who treat their clients with utmost respect and sincerity. Thanks again
