I had 2 counts of ABH , an was charged a year after the offence , the moment I made A phone call to BLJ they was straight away on the case , the solicitor Julie Grimes appointed me a barrister right away an asked me how I wanted to proceed with the charges and was there for from the minute I was asked them to represent me an till the end, I ended getting a suspended sentence and avoided prison for the second time. This is one of the best solicitors in the country and I’d highly recommend if anyone is facing any criminal charges and need good representation then give BLJ a call asap! I was in a dark place awaiting the outcome and whenever I needed advice Julie was always on the other end of the phone , I like to thank Julie Grimes and my barrister Mrs Duckworth for all the help and support and patience and time and also preparation for my court proceedings , 5 star company and they helped me get a second chance at life!

I would like to thank Jeremy , Marcela & Julie . After a very difficult six months I am finally getting my life back together. If it wasn’t for all your help and support I don’t think I could’ve gotten through it. You made me feel at ease and even when I used to get in touch over the most littlest things I was always dealt with in a professional manner. Thank you
