Life Savers

I was placed in a difficult situation when I was pulled over by the police for doing 79mph in a 40mph zone. As my job requires driving, my employment was at risk due to a potential ban looming over me. I happen to stumble across Forrest Williams when comparing a wide range of solicitors and I am very happy I went ahead with them. For the price you pay you certainly get first class service. Firstly, Stella Bates who helped me from my initial enquiry to the end of my case was superb. She was super responsive and helpful whenever I had any queries, absolutely amazing at her job. Secondly, my selected barrister Margaret Anucha was equally as superb, her professionalism and work ethic on the day despite being extremely busy with other clients was beyond excellent. My outcome was simply 6 points and a fine, which is way beyond what I was expecting considering my speed. I would highly recommend Forrest Williams and if possible using specifically Margaret and Stella if you have a similar case to mine.

Totting up ban

I had a great experience with these solicitors. They were really supportive and helpful all the way through the process, explaining what evidence I needed to provide, what kind of things it’s important to highlight, and what to expect on the day. I received a positive outcome and was able to keep my license.

Exceptional services

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the team for their outstanding support and professionalism throughout my legal case. From the very beginning, they provided clear guidance on every step of the process, ensuring that I fully understood the procedures leading up to the court hearing. Their communication was excellent, keeping me informed and reassured at every stage. On the day of the hearing, everything was handled with efficiency and care, which helped ease any stress or pressure I was feeling. The team demonstrated not only a high level of legal expertise but also genuine empathy and understanding of my situation. Their practical advice and well-considered solutions played a key role in achieving a successful outcome. I would like to give special thanks to Serena, my solicitor, for her exceptional professionalism, dedication, and compassion, and to Lucy, who supported my case with great attention to detail and commitment. The level of service I received was first class, and I would not hesitate to recommend this firm to anyone seeking professional, reliable and compassionate legal representation.

Hands down best solicitors to deal with!! I was let down by another firm which ended with me getting a 6 month totting up ban. Got in touch with stella and had the ban suspended a week later, couple months down the line and ive managed to keep my licence permanently and avoid a ban altogether. Unbelievable result for 107mph in a 70mph. Cannot thank stella and steve enough

I can not praise forest Williams enough. They had less than 24 hours to prepare to support me in court. What a fantastic and understanding team, especially Helen who met me at court and took on my case. Helen went above and beyond helping me feel at ease every step of the way. I can not thank you guys enough for all you have done for me especially given the short time frame I left you with. 1000% recommend. Thank you again

I can’t thank Mr Williams enough for the kind man he is. The time advice given to me and I’m not even his client. The compassion and understanding at all levels threw out me speaking with Mr Williams could not have been more of a pleasant experience. We live in a day and age where time is valuable for that level of expertise and for the time to be given that generously is very touching. I’d be sure to recommend anyone that requires your expertise not mentioning my self. Many thanks great work Yasin

Understanding and professional

It was important for me that I felt heard and understood. Legal representation alone was not enough me, I needed to feel understood and that there was complete transparency and trust felt by both parties. Stella did an amazing job listening to my account and my concerns. I felt supported by the service I received from her. The firm really does take a proactive approach. They are able to spend more time and resources on your case and deal with it in a timely manner. As such they are well worth their fees.

Absolutely amazing

Obviously there’s only so much I can share but lest to say my solicitor was the best. Stella’s communication was excellent throughout they were understanding and took great care to make sure that all the details were 100% correct and covered in their entirety before moving on. Their unrelenting drive was inspirational and really gave me the hope and reassurance I needed. I also got the result I needed/wanted and more so justified. Thank you so much Stella.

A great team! My caseworker went above and beyond. I'm so used to legal firms being so cold and distant. Stella was perfect, offering emotional support where she could alongside legal advice. Thanks Stella and team.

I would fully recommend this solicitor if you have an issue. In the past I have contacted solicitors when I have needed advice and generally they do not really help you whether you pay or the advice is free,however if you call these solicitors you will find someone that is helpful straightforward and really does try to help. Many thanks to Steve and if I or anyone else I know needs assistance in the future I will definitely send them to you. Kind regards k

Thank you for taking the time to send a review, we are always happy to give free initial advice.

From the very first phone call to the last, this company is 100% understanding, respectful, loyal and great communication. I would like to thank Oliver for securing the outcome that we needed and Natalie (barrister) for going above and beyond. Yes these may be a bit more pricey but you get quality. Would not hesitate to use again and would recommend 100%. Thank-you Forrest Williams!!
