I would totally recommend Scullion Law to anyone seeking expertise in criminal law. From the first contact, I was reassured by their friendly and open approach to my situation. They immediately took what was a very stressful situation and handled it themselves, easing significant stress on me. At the same time, I was involved at every step of the way, therefore I was very well-informed of any updates or progress with my case. I knew I could rely on Anna and her team to achieve the best outcome, whilst smoothing what can be a very stressful and uncertain process. I am very grateful for all your help and easing the stress of what was a very stressful situation. I would like to thank Anna MacKay, Urfan Dar, Aimee, Michael, and the rest of the team for their professional yet personal service, and their swift and decisive action which led to the best outcome in a bad situation. I hope I will never have to, but if I ever find myself in such a position in the future, I would have no hesitation in using their services again or recommending them to friends or colleagues.

Very grateful for your swift actions in addressing my issue/case.

You took ownership and acted in my best interest to find the best possible solution for me.

Also, regarding my financial situation, you understood my circumstances and took that into account to ensure I was comfortable and prioritised at all times.

Much appreciated! I hope I never need to contact you for legal troubles again but if I ever need a hand, I know exactly where to go!

Michael represented me on a matter I was overly concerned and embarrassed about. He made me feel more at ease, talked me through each stage and how to prepare for it. He answered all my questions in depth and reassured me everything would be ok. Very happy with the outcome.

Favourable outcome

5

I found working with Micheal refreshing and satisfying. Any email l sent along for info the speed at which l received a reply was reassuring.
I found myself in a tight spot and with copious previous convictions stretching back 35 year. I considered myself a losing cause due to the enormity of my previous. But because l had got some spent time behind meand Micheal's attention to detail and his efforts to chase me down... even though I'd made a mistake and missed an oppointment Micheal said don't worry about it I'll get you in again well before the court got a face to face. He knew l knew how important that is in these situations and put me at ease right away. I thought, 'oh, gosh I'm fine now because I've messed up the dates and times' but l want to finish on this, it was a real pleasure and a comfortable outcome do hats off, thanks Micheal, your a gent.

Having found myself in very bad situation following an rta at work, I needed an excellent law firm to look after me. Having no previous brushes with the law I was lost as to where to look, but after reading reviews online, I choose to go with Scullion law.
I could not have made a better choice, Michael and Kris looked after me very well indeed and delivered an unbelievable result under the circumstances.
Thanks to everyone at Scullion law.
No offence, but I hope I never see any of you again😅 however if I did find myself on the wrong side of the law again, you would be my first port of call.
Thanks again for everything and have a great Christmas.
Kind Regards
Alan.

Forget the rest you have just found the best

A massive thank you To Michael Stewart for an exceptional job and result providing legal representation to myself after "an error in judgement" when I committed a driving offense, a disqualification was the normal penalty for my "error in judgement" which would have cost me the rest of my career which in turn would have destroyed myself and my families life, Michael prepared my case requesting the court consider exceptional hardship, I've got to confess whilst this gave me a very small glimmer of hope, I fully expected the worst today, unbelievably Im just about to jump back into my car and drive legally, its got to beat standing at bus stops in the snow/rain/hail, I'm still in a little disbelief as I have associates who have also "made an error in judgement" and they are now asking me for a lift as their chosen legal representation couldn't achieve the amazing result Michael orchestrated hence they are all uses bus and train passes, I don't normally leave reviews but I don't normally receive such a superb service, Michael take a big bow you were superb today, I cant put into words how much this means to me and my family, anyone looking for Elite legal representation look no further, you are wasting your time if you think you can find better in this business, THANK YOU MICHAEL YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

I made a mistake which was going to cost me my license and Michael prepared an excellent exceptional hardship defense which allowed me to still keep my license after 2 cases of no insurance. Thoroughly delighted with the result and service Michael provided.

Dear Michel Stuart
I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for your exceptional legal representation regarding my recent traffic violation. Your expertise, professionalism, and dedication were truly remarkable throughout the entire process.

Your comprehensive knowledge of traffic laws and regulations, as well as your ability to navigate the legal system efficiently, greatly alleviated my concerns and ensured a favorable outcome. Your attention to detail and strategic approach in handling my case were truly commendable.

Furthermore, your clear and concise communication style helped me understand the complexities of the situation and kept me informed at every stage. Your prompt responses to my inquiries and your willingness to address any doubts or uncertainties were invaluable.

Not only did you achieve the best possible resolution for my case, but you also provided me with the guidance and support I needed during a stressful time. Your professionalism and unwavering commitment to my legal rights were truly impressive, and I am grateful for your steadfast advocacy.

I would highly recommend your services to anyone in need of legal representation, as you have proven to be an exceptional lawyer. Your passion for justice and your dedication to your clients' well-being are evident in every aspect of your work.

Once again, thank you for your outstanding service. It was a privilege to have you as my attorney, and I am truly grateful for the positive outcome you secured on my behalf.

I was seeking two opinions on a traffic matter. Kris Buchanan from Scullion Law had been recommended to me by a friend who had a successful outcome with him.

I was advised by the other reputed law firm whom I had approached to plead guilty and accept my fate. Kris advised me otherwise and prevailed. Tremendous outcome!

If you are looking for true, expert advice on traffic specific matters Kris and Scullion Law are the best in the business. Thank you!
