I would like Thank James Bainbridge - Lawyer Head Of Crown so much from the bottom of our heart for all he did for me & my family. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet and probably will be some time before it does.
These last ten weeks have been very difficult for me but your support, professionalism, expertise and the care you have showed us will remain with us for quite sone time to come.
You were so patient, you listened, never rushed us & you did not judge.
You opened all communications so we could speak with you. & you put us at total ease from the very beginning & your kindness we will never ever forget.
I can see how your profile matches your personality Senior Associate, Head of Crown & described as an ‘Affable’ Lawyer ‘A Rising Star’ No surprise! Your reputation proceeds you. That profile sums you up perfectly.
I was pleasantly surprised at how affordable you were & how you supported & advised me on this and how you would best support me.
So Thank you so much again James Bainbridge - Cartwright King for everything who are very blessed to have your expertise & your family are very blessed also.
I could NOT have had the outcome I had if it wasn’t for you & that I am confident of & you made us feel comfortable & confident in you from the first call we had with you and subsequent meetings there after.

WARNING! AVOID JAMES BAINBRIDGE & CARTWRIGHT KING!
James Bainbridge is a solicitor who should be avoided at all costs, especially if you are accessing legal aid. His conduct is highly questionable, he has no interest in preparing or managing cases effectively. James Bainbridge appears to align himself with the prosecution rather than defending his clients, making him untrustworthy and fraudulent. What I experienced suggests he is more concerned with undermining his clients than representing their interests. Avoid James Bainbridge and Cartwright King for that matter.
