Best General Criminal Defence Solicitors in EC1A

“Stephen Halloran of Lawtons represented my son this year for a charge of affray. This was very distressing for the whole family and particularly for my 20 year old son. Stephen was amazing, treating him with the utmost respect and showing empathy for the unfortunate mess he had got himself into. Stephen's response time to all our numerous emails was excellent and when the case went to 3 separate court hearings Stephen attended to give morale support to us. He instructed a very good barrister on our behalf and arranged meetings beforehand for us to be familiar with how the system worked. What I was most impressed with was Stephen's manner and his way of talking to us in layman terms. He explained things really clearly and was not overly optimistic about the potential outcomes which was helpful. Hopefully we will never find ourselves in a similar situation but if we did we would definitely instruct Lawtons again. Thank you Stephen.”

“Stephen Bennett was exceptional dealing with my case. He gathered all the information needed to provide me with the best resources to gain a positive outcome to my case. He was a very calming influance and reassured that he had my best interests in hand and produced a positive outcome to my case.”
