Tagged solicitors Jenna Downey and Jessica Wilson

My son was recently accused of a number of serious charges (8 counts in total) by his previous partner. His previous partner was a fantasist who manipulated the Police with her statements to the point where my son had to go to Crown Court to defend himself. We picked Eventum Legal as they specialise in defending domestic abuse cases and we have all been very impressed with how they handled the case throughout and the high quality of the barrister that they appointed to defend my son. The result of this robust defence was my son being found not guilty on all counts by a unanimous jury verdict. I would definitely recommend Eventum Legal to anyone else in a similar position to the one that my son found himself in.

Tagged solicitors Oliver Simon Gardner and Saul Gardner

I had the pleasure of being represented by Oliver and Saul. Saul worked very hard to bring my case together, working above and beyond, and certainly surpassed my expectations, even working long outside of his normal working hours too....nothing was too much trouble, and also being very vigilant, prompt and understanding. Oliver is fantastic. The way he presented my case was very professional, and again, surpassed my expectations. He made me feel at ease, being very down to earth, and explaining things very well. I would certainly recommend them, and have complete faith in them both. Thank you Oliver and Saul, for your ongoing support, I am so very grateful.

I had a very good experience Denise Wilson-Osuide. Throughout the case from first meeting her to the end, she was explicitly clear with all her emails and calls. She was also there for me mentally and emotionally. I'm happy with her service.
