Never, ever use these.

They appoint 'in-house' barrister to represent you at the police station. He will tell you go no comment. At the first hearing he will tell you to plead not guilty - for the sole purpose of getting his legal aid order. After that he will tell you to plead guilty. Once you are sent to prison, he and GQS will cut off all communication with you refusing to take calls from prison and refusing to get advice on appeal. If you ask for a SAR, they will only send you part disclosure. From prison if you call Mr. Ishfaq his receptionist is told to say he is in meeting or out but once you pretend to be a new client using a different name, he will take the call. When confronted (after receptionist told his client he is out and after he changed his name - after 2 mins of being told he is out), he hung up. All evidence can be provided if and when required. The current reviews are all 'planted' by relatives of his.
