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.

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.

Jacqui Callan

Tagged solicitor Jacqui Callan

That devastating moment arrived when my family needed legal representation. We had no idea where to go or who to turn to. We started researching and making a few calls. We are so pleased that this led us to Richard Nelson Solicitors. From the very first telephone conversation with Jacqui Callan the decision was made. Her empathy, Knowledge, calmness and support was evident from the outset. Jacqui, Shannon Keenan (legal assistant) and Mr Phil Gibbs (our Barrister) maintained regular contact with us in the following months, proactively ensuring we were all fully aware of what was happening. Always available despite heavy workloads, always reassuring, always professional. During the court proceedings (the worst 10 days of our lives) Phil, Jacqui & Shannon were ever-present marinating a calm, competent and personable approach. They all took time to explain every element of the proceedings in an honest and methodical manner ensuring that despite our obvious stress we understood everything. Their approach assisted us with the emotions of the situation. Mr Gibbs impressively articulated our case signifying his knowledge of the facts, his cross-examination was firm but fair, demonstrating again his empathy and understanding of the situation for both parties involved. Truth and justice prevailed when the verdict was announced and we were successful. The whole team lived, ate and slept our case with us. I cannot explain in words how grateful we are to them all. We owe them everything. If you are reading this, as I did other reviews because you are lost and do not know where to turn for legal advice, I would without hesitation recommend this firm.

Raymond Shaw

Tagged solicitor Raymond Shaw

This was my first (and hopefully last) time needing a lawyer to support me after I was arrested on false accusations. My lawyer helped resolve all issues including making a complaint against the police handling and complete removal of records.
