Criminal Case – Defence
We used MK Law for my brother who was fighting a criminal case. Naturally as a family we were all on edge and our brother kept expressing his innocence and was facing quite a sentence if found guilty. Through MK Law we were assigned Alison and she is truly one of the most experienced solicitors I have dealt with, very to the point no legal jargon, if she said she was going to get something done she would. We were kept up to date with the case and all changes. She fought my brothers behalf to ensure he was treated fairly demanding the prosecution be transparent and do their jobs correctly and efficiently. Due to her chasing and being on the ball my brother ultimately was found not guilty. As a family we are so grateful for her help and perseverance in ensuring all evidence was collected or lack of evidence in this situation. Would recommend to anyone in a situation. MK Law will not let you down they will do their very best.
