Robin an Alex
I was represented by Alex from hull he was absolutely amazing a credit to this area an more so as he is still a trainee . Alex represents me at police station an I felt very comfortable an in safe hands . I’m 41 an this guy is late 20.s
Regardless his complete representation was excellent .
From the 1st representation and knowing I will be appearing at court following day . Alex instructed his college robin smith to represent me at court . Unfortunately robins efforts were not welcomed by the judge an I ended up being held on remand .
Robin smith notified my next of kin the situation an I was informed by robin of what will happen .
While I was held on remand I kept in contact with Alex on many occasions an although he was limited in what he could do or say due to his position in the firm Alex was an absolute legend an his words were “ if I can help or you need anything let me no “
His comments were reassuring .
I was supposed to he represented by the hull branch however I got transferred to the Nottingham branch .
My experience an representation from the barristers were beyond competent I’d rather say dismal an unprofessional.
The paralegals were immature , unprofessional and full of attitude, Mis leading of the truth , considering there position of trust
The service was appalling .
I did have a conversation from Lincoln prison with a paralegal that if I was paying out of my own pocket I would get better service .
I was judged by the barrister at crown court an badgerd to plead guilty
I didn’t .
As I had no faith in this firm in Nottingham I had to educate my self in law . An write my own defends statement an luckily the governor allowed me to pass it onto my visitor to hand over to my friend to Type up an email to Laura Briggs
If anyone ever has Laura Briggs or represented by Nottingham branch walk away quick .
Now I spent 5 months never speaking to a solicitor after 5 letters an I lost count of phone calls I made requesting that .
I requested the evidence held against me an was sent after 3 requests.
I was judged wrongly an treated like I was bad .
Luckily I had my probation officer to help we’re she could’ an they contacted this branch on my behalf as I was ignored completely, misinformed, not informed.
When it came to trial the barrister allocated at crown court was exceptional.
An result went in my favour .
Since I was released I had a pending matter to which Alex initially dealt with then passed on to robin smith an his advice an help was brilliant . The end result was robin represented me for sentencing an he was a credit to his area . It seems the cps are very poor luckily I had one of the best representation to me .
So I was going to go to the legal ombudsman wit her regards to Nottingham branch however I’m sure you cover your mistakes like a politician.
So to the top dogs of Johnson’s partnerships
An to the public
Robin smith an Alex ( apologises I have forgot his surname )
Your lucky you Have these on your team
Wit him regards m dale
