Richard Nelson LLP

One can appreciate that you don’t ever find yourself in need of help or assistance from solicitors. However in this case, part of me was relieved that I could rely on Richard Nelson LLP. They are fast and professional in their responses, always have time to listen to any concerns, no matter large or small, and clearly have extensive experience which provided me with assurance that the best outcome was possible. Thank you, with all sincerity, thank you.

Professional. friendly and knowledgeable solicitors who listen, understand, and show empathy. The Richard Nelson team were wonderful at every touch point. They were more than a solicitor and there in my hour of need. When other firms told me I had no rights and they couldn't do anything, this wonderful team listened, understood, were empathetic and provided a professional service. The support from the team also in turn helped my mental health in what was a stressful and traumatic experience dealing with the police and courts.

I contacted Richard Nelson as I urgently needed some expert legal advice about a distressing and sensitive matter. The service I received throughout my case from Latoya Atkinson was outstanding. Latoya dealt with my case with sensitivity without losing at any point her forensic focus on the arising matters. She was proactive in letting me know the progress of the case (there was no need for me to nudge or chase for an update at any point). When needed, she sent detailed legal advice that was both comprehensive and clear. Latoya was approachable and exceptionally responsive to emails. I believe that the success of my case is due to her skill, care and professionalism. I recommend Latoya Atkinson wholeheartedly and without any reservation whatsoever.

When I recieved a Minded to Bar letter two months ago, my whole life was shattered. I thought the end of everything I cared about was over, following an incident for which the Teaching Regulation Agency saw fit to dismiss with 'No Further Action'. Mark was a source of real strength in terms of his assured and relevent experience in DBS matters, and with his extensive knowledge of how the DBS works, and what it is exactly they're looking for with representations, I was not included in the Children's Barred List. Such an inclusion would have been catastrophic for me, in every way. Mark took my instructions and made full and comprehensive representations on my behalf, and with five weeks to spare of the DBS' eight week deadline. He updated and added to these when new information came to light. I was appreciative of him always being on the end of a phone whenever I had a question. And I had many! I can now rebuild not only my career, but my life, as well as my and my family's future, thanks to Mark's compelling mitigation to the DBS. Recommended without reservation to all those who find themselves in similar circumstances with the DBS. Thank you Mark!

When you are being prosecuted you need to hire someone who knows the law well enough to represent you so that you don't get hit even harder that you deserve. It happens all the time, the (throwing the book at you method). The book hurts. The police and CPS like to escalate charges. If you don't have a representative who knows what might happen. I had a solicitor from another firm before, same case. His representation was discontinued and I hired a lady from Richard Nelson LLP. She made sure the law remained honest, I was given a consequence that matched my offence not a hugely escalated sentence that would have been unfair. She knows things like what sentencing guidelines the court are empowered with and made a point to the court that they accepted which otherwise would have left me in a position where I would no doubt have been prosecuted again in future. Eve Paterson skillfully negotiated the safe zone between there should be a consequence and escalated charges to make it sound worse than it was. In my very humble opinion,if you are going into a courtroom without her good luck. But if I had a choice I would use Richard Nelson. Eve if possible.

Latoya has been instrumental that the Police discarded the consideration to add disclosure to my DBS status. She was willing to listen to my needs and after checking my documents assured me that it can be done. She highlighted certain evidence which I did not know was important till then. Most importantly Latoya was open to suggestions and adapted as necessary and firm on certain other points that she said was important. Highly recommended.
