Amanda Sheppard

Tagged solicitor Amanda Sheppard

Amanda has been my chosen Lawyer on three separate occasions As anyone knows being investigated in relation to a criminal offence is very daunting and really imparts your mental state of mind straight away Amanda was able to identify the key issues and worked closely with me to ensure any evidence I had to prove my innocence and undermine the credibility of the individuals who made the complaints was quickly and proactively sent across to the police within a timely fashion Amanda is very knowledgeable very passionate and treat you with the respect you deserve ensuring your welfare in custody and throughout the process is held the highest of standards because of this approach my innocence was proven. Amanda also possesses heavily experience in military law and MAJOR administer action. AGA67 so having the luxury of somebody who possesses extended amount of experience and civilian and military law was an added bonus. I cannot recommend enough that if you ever find yourself in a situation please reach out to her be upfront honest give her as much information as you possibly can even if you feel embarrassed and I promise you Amanda will do what she can to ensure you have the right outcome. Amanda is a realist you understands how life works so you can have full faith that you are dealing with a fantastic person the level of service is outstanding from me initially contacting Amanda to explain there had been police involvement as soon as we were off the phone she was straight away in contact with the police arranging everything to get the matter put to bed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Amanda is not frightened to question the police during an interview and also hold them to account which is very refreshing promoting fair practice. Sometimes the police tend to believe a victim but this is something which Amanda identifies quickly and ensures that due diligence is carried out fairly as the police are duty bound to investigate on behalf of a victim not believe them so be rest assured you are in very capable hands. Thank you, Amanda for everything you have done and thank you for treating me like a person with a Tailored service

John Ruane

Tagged solicitor John Ruane

I contacted JHR after failing a roadside drug test. John called me personally within half an hour of me putting a contact request in on the website. We discussed the case and I was apprehensive with regards to paying the costs involved with fighting this at trial to someobody I had never met in person. And also on a case where the evidence against me is black and white that I am guilty of the offences charged upon myself by CPS. Fast forward time to now 16 months on from my arrest date and I am sat here now in my vehicle with my license still valid and clean, having walked away from court with an acquittal and also a refund of some costs on there way to me. There are other services available who offer a what john offers but I am confident in sharing that money spent with JHR is money well spent. You will be given access to one of the best Barristers in the business. In my case this was John Dye. Upon reviewing his resume I walked into court confident that I would be walking back out with my license. You will be updated and kept in the loop at all stages of your trial and be offered the best opportunity of a win on your court date.

Waqqas Ashraf

Tagged solicitor Waqqas Ashraf

I hired Wasqas from WA Legal to work on my criminal case and I cannot recommend him enough. From our very first consultation, Wasqas was transparent, highly responsive and took the time to explain every step of a complex legal process in plain English. What stood out was his dedication and calm demeanour during a very stressful time for me. He was quick to answer my questions and kept me fully informed of any updates. If you need a skilled and trustworthy lawyer, who genuinely cares about their clients, then look no further. I would highly recommend this firm.
