I was recently charged with 16 breaches of a VRO. Going in blind, being held in custody and not knowing what was going to happen, was a gut wrenching and absolutely terrifying situation. I was suddenly out of control of my future and had no idea what was going to happen but John provided professional and expert advice to both me and my family and I was able to be reassured I was in good hands going through a very traumatic experience.

Despite the communication challenges faced from being in custody and having very limited contact with the outside world, John represented me from day one until after the case was finalised.

John was up front and explained the legalities and the whole situation in simple easy to understand terms.

Despite the seriousness of the charges, the outcome was the best I could have expected - a fine and a spent conviction and my freedom which you simply can’t put a price on.

John’s knowledge was first class, he was up front and there were no hidden costs.

If I ever need a lawyer again, John Hawkins will be my first place of call.

I highly recommend John for all your legal matters.
