"Very professional and expert advice, I would most definitely recommend to any one that needs professional help.

 

I am very proud of Patterson Law, due to the amount of effort they put not only in my case but every case they have in hand.

 

One of a kind, and i think that there is only one company in the whole of England that has such expertise on motoring Law.

 

The future is bright, the future is Patterson Law...."

"I'm very grateful to have met such professional & competent people who assisted my case from the very begin to the complete resolution. I would highly recommend the Patterson Law services."

"Just wanted to say how pleased I was with yesterday's decision by x Magistrates. Abbie was absolutely fantastic and totally dominated proceedings with her firm grasp of the motoring laws. I think the turning point were the photographs, which helped prove our case and illustrate that the signs were NOT clear. I am so relieved to be still driving, as I expected to receive a ban. It has been a very stressful process for me, I am very grateful to you and Emma for all your hard work and attention to detail. I will recommend you to everyone I know, and will definately use you again If I am in a similar position! Once again, many thanks to you all."

"I initially enquired via Patterson Laws website, and within the hour I received a call from Emma Patterson herself to take all my details about the incident that occurred, I agreed to take out the services with Patterson Law, and the next day all the paperwork was in place to proceed with the case.

Ashley Fletcher who was to take over the case was quick on the ball, to get things resolved as quickly and efficiently as possible. He explained all that would happen and how to move forward.

I am extremely happy and satisfied that this company and the staff involved with dealing with my case were on board and would highly recommend them to anyone who may end up in the same situation as I did. The solicitor who met me at the court house (Helen) was highly thorough and got the job done, without this firm being on my side to aid assistance I would not of got the outcome I needed.

MANY THANKS TO YOU ALL."

I'm so grateful and still slightly in shock. And of course I'm driving like a pensioner."

"Straightforward, I particularly enjoyed Emma’s interrogation (Not!); she was quick to assess my situation and passed the work on to her likewise competent staff.I recommend anyone to use a good solicitor; resist being walked over by oppressive parties. Too many of us now allow ourselves to be bullied and put out hands up because we do not have the time or the means to defend ourselves."

"Very good and professional service with a favourable outcome!"

Case Progression Officer - Ashley Fletcher

December 2011

Background - Our client represented himself in the magistrates court and was convicted of failing to provide driver information,  he was then banned for 6 months for totting up due to having too many points.

We were instructed to act. We appealed to the Crown Court against conviction. We suspended his totting ban whilst waiting for the appeal date so he could drive again. We persuaded the Crown Prosecution Service not to oppose the appeal and the appeal was granted. A defendant's costs order was granted to reimburse his reasonable legal fees.

Most impressed. Thought your second line of charges a bit high but when I realised they included the Barrister fee’s I thought they were good. Ria Pleass was very professional and gave us good advise at each stage.  Her choice of James as the Barrister was excellent and I was pleased she went for someone of his experience as on the face of things we had an odds against case on the statements alone. I was pleased she agreed with our general view that there was some inconsistencies in the officers statement and this did prove to be the case on the day. Her presentation to the court when we attended on our own was remarked on by the clerk of the court as being very efficient. Not only did the CPS have a copy of her presentation so did the court and I had a copy in case those two went astray! Very thorough!

A bonus that we are recovering costs as well!

By the way even if we did not have such a just outcome to our case my view of your firms handling would have been the same but without the added bonus of a good result as the initial charge of dangerous driving was a nasty one to contemplate if it stuck.

Are there any ways you feel we could improve our service?

 

Not really perhaps make more of the fact that if you need to use Barristers their initial fee is within your fee (noted - Emma) as I missed that point although you did explain that in your paperwork. Overall your approach is very good and from a business improvement point of view I think the initial phone call going to the boss and giving that free call a lot of time is the right way to do it. After that Ria didn’t put a foot wrong.

"Extremely happy with the way the entire case was dealt with. The information given was crystal clear right from the outset. The outcome was even better in my favour. Ria Pleass was my case progression officer and she was amazing. I was always confident in what she said and had full faith and trust in her. I was kept informed about my case progression every day via emails and telephone. Outstanding!

Are there any ways you feel we could improve our service?

Cant think of anything more that could be improved upon. Excellent through out!"

"I found Ashley very supportive, he “personalised” his approach to our case and was able to assist us making the correct choices through the process. Thank you for your help and support during this case, your considered, open and honest views of the situation. were very much appreciated. My lasting impressions will be of the lack of application of common sense by the CPS and police to this matter. However, the system does enable common sense to be applied, albeit at a late stage. The sense of elation when we left the court was also something to remember.

On behalf of x and myself, thank you."

Thank you once again for everything"

"It was brilliant news this morning to hear that the CPS had withdrawn the two charges they had brought against me - as you and Emma had advised was likely.

This is just a quick 'thank you' for the incredibly professional and efficient way you managed the defences to the charges. I had initially contemplated defending the charges in person. I'm glad I didn't. I was impressed within minutes of posting my question on your firm's web-site - as Emma rang me, almost immediately, to advise me on the merits of defending - and I have remained impressed throughout with the quality of advice and service you have subsequently provided. I shall recommend your services, widely  -  without any hesitation or reservation whatsoever. Many, many thanks."

"I received a detailed and helpful service right from the start.  I was very impressed at how dedicated Ashley was all the way through – and also as my case became more difficult as time went by, as I somehow managed to get two more offences between the initial court hearing and date of hearing.  Ashley was professional and reassuring throughout and without his guidance, I would have been extremely stressed.

 

Please find attached the Client Feedback Questionnaire form you sent me. I would like to thank you so much for all your help and support - I don't' know what I would have done without you. I hope that the client feedback questionnaire expresses my sincere gratitude for the great job you did - and your firm.

I will happily act as a reference (though would rather remain anonymous) if you need it for any other clients. Please could you forward this email on to your boss, Emma, as I would like her to know how happy I have been with your service.

You are offering a great service and now you have a life-long Ambassador from me, though I hope I will not have to use your services again !!!!!!!"


(our client was at risk of over 20 points on her licence and we tied all the cases up in one court and perusade the court to find exceptional hardship.)

Case Progression Officer - Ashley Fletcher

November 2011

(The underlining comes from a happy client - Emma)

When shopping for Lawyers, all bar Patterson stated essentially there was no hope of avoiding points and a ban, the only thing they could offer was an Exception Hardship to minimise the coming Ban. Patterson was the only one (tried 5 firms) to mention a Strategy for avoiding Ban and Points, with all the other firms advising no hope of no points and ban thought you maybe just telling me what I wanted to hear so I would appoint you.

Following receipt of the summons decided I would go with the ‘optimistic lawyers’ Patterson’s (following conclusion of my case Patterson are not optimistic, just the only lawyers who know what they are on about) you were also the most competitive firm Fee’s. You took my information down, let me know what you were doing, let me know what I would expect in court, had a last minute pep talk before Court date. ...

Pleaded guilty, lawyer presented special reasons argument. Went in box for Evidence, raised my hand whilst giving the oath (got a laugh) then answered the questions and then sat down waiting for Magistrates to make decision. Magistrates came out gave their decision. Found Special reasons No points, No Ban, and £525 fine (expected around that) so was well happy. Just desperately wanted my licence untouched so the dam Insurance companies didn’t yank my premiums up couple hundred for the next 5 years and I got it.

Extremely glad made choice to go with Patterson or else would have spent more money on lawyers and ended up with points, ban, fine, increased insurance premiums and I would have had to use them dam overpriced and overcrowded trains, so you easily saved me £0,000s in the long run, and hundreds of hours of my time waiting on trains and buses.

Thank you Nikki, for your services.

PS. Should I find myself in need of legal advice on a motoring offence again I know who to call or should a friend need advice will definitely recommend.

"Further our phone call yesterday I just wanted to say thanks to you and Patterson Law for doing such a professional job on presenting and dealing with Andrew’s case.

I know we achieved a good result but I think I would have still sent you this message as I was really impressed with your handling of the paperwork and the technical legal work Ria.

You also picked out an excellent Barrister in James Tucker. If ever you or Patterson Law require a recommendation to be written I would be happy to oblige.

I am happy for you to use these comments."

"Just like to say a million thank you's for the work that you have put in on my behalf in preparing my case for me. This as been an extremely stressful time for me as you can imagine,but all your advice,your reassuring mail and telephone calls helped me believe that I had a chance of keeping my licence-which of course was the outcome. I was also pleased with the Barrister that you appointed to represent me.He also was very reassuring in court and I did have a chance to thank him myself. Back to work now with a smile on my face not having to worry about my fate any more.

Once again many many thank you's for your efforts and professionalism in dealing with my case. I'm glad I found you on the Internet and hopefully I will never put myself in this position again so as to need you,but you will come highly recommended if anybody I know ever needs your help."

I am a very happy lady!!!

I am writing to thank you and your team for your work in helping me with my appeal which I was succesful with ....You and your team were superb from beginning to end. I found your company from the internet and spoke to you on the phone - I found you very friendly, professional and informative. It was a hard decision for me to decide whether to go ahead with an appeal and hire your services ...but after speaking to you I had a good positive feeling about it and put it on my credit card and went ahead.

Our client represented himself in the magistrates court on a fail to name driver charge.

It is such a relief even though it wasn't the crime of the century. I can now keep one eye peeled for strange men lurking behind tripod cameras at the side of the road. .....Thank you again for a very professional and honest view on this matter. I will happily recommend you to anyone else in a similar positiion."

I only wish they could have decided that earlier before all the stress, flights, and costs! Thank you for your tireless help and last-minute calls. . Richard (the Barrister) , by the way, was fantastic. He was a very good barrister and you were good to select him. Thanks again."

"Good quality of service. Sometimes found it difficult to understand the process but easy to communicate with lawyer and good explanations given"

 

 

 

Are there any ways you feel we could improve our service?

 

 

"A more in depth explanation of proceedings could sometimes be given e.g. via phone call rather than e-mail or as well as, so that questions can be answered, although phone calls were made when necessary and e-mails always answered speedily. The service given was of a very high standard, professional and friendly and always willing to spend time to explain and update on proceedings. I would highly recommend"

Emma's response - All noted. Because we deal with this area of law day in day out we sometimes fall into the trap of thinking the terms and phrases that we use are easy to understand. We will have a team talk and make sure that we explain things more carefully going forward. Im glad that you were able to understand things after a proper chat.

"I know I have already thanked you but just wanted to repeat myself. You must have done a brilliant job in the very short time you had to work on it. Definitely a weight off all our minds.

Senior Case Progression Officer - Ria Pleass

"Regardless of the outcome, your service is so good, and rooted in integrity, that I would normally seek out opportunities to use you again: however, a Road Traffic matter is something I want avoid! The fact that you succeeded in having the Dangerous Driving charge dropped before trial in the Crown Court – and justly so – was the (very) satisfying ‘icing on the cake’ and clear evidence of Nikki’s blend of a professional, methodical, determined and sensitive approach in dealing with the Police, the CPS and the Courts.

This was a very stressful time for me, my wife and immediate family.  Nikki was always reassuring and yet realistic, keeping me informed as needed. This gave me hope and confidence that I was in the right hands and that whatever the outcome, it would be the best we could have done. It is a huge relief. It’s hard to describe the feeling now that it’s over: after carrying so much pressure and worry, I feel exhausted and delighted at the same time. My experience in dealing with Nikki, Emma and all the staff has actually inspired me to look for ways of continuous improvement in how I run my own financial practice. I seriously wondered at times whether I should re-qualify as a Road Traffic lawyer, such was the obvious career satisfaction that came across in helping people unfortunate enough to be in the position I was facing."

 

Are there any ways you feel we could improve our service?

"If ever I find out how to improve on perfection, I will let you know. Please keep doing what you’re doing."

"Dear Nikki, Thank you…so much! Thank you all.

I cannot express how grateful I am for your help with this.I am in happy shock that the case has been dropped and it’s gone away: it’s been a seriously stressful 6 months. Without your advice and help, we would never have got this just outcome. A weight that I must have got used to has just lifted…I will recommend you and your firm without a moment’s hesitation. Thank you again.

 

 

 

Absolutely. I found Nikki has a valuable blend of sensitivity combined with being very precise, meticulous, methodical and forthright; she’s been a God send for me.Thank you as well Emma, for your support and to all the staff who have been so professional and courteous. Jemma was wonderful as well when she covered for Nikki during her holiday. Everything seems to run like clockwork. It is a huge relief. It’s hard to describe the feeling now that it’s over: after carrying so much pressure and worry, I feel exhausted and delighted at the same time. Thank you"

"Having never been in this position before (and I never, never will be in this position again, I felt ashamed that I had been so stupid and naive on the law. I felt like a criminal of the worst order.

From the very first contact with Emma and through all my contact with Ria via email and telephone conversations, I was treated with courtesy and respect, which meant so much when I was feeling so low. I was always put at ease by being kept well informed of all aspects of progress with my case. Whilst maintaining high professional standards, the human element was always present.

The appointed barrister was excellent who put me at ease on the worst day of my life. She was brilliant. I would recommend Emma Patterson Law in a heart beat, but hope I will never have to.Best Wishes"

"In Patterson Law, staffs aim to provide a thorough and high quality professional service. They take victim’s concerns seriously and explain what they are doing to address them, including whether or not they are able to resolve it and the advice we need. It focuses on areas that would give advantage to the victim to resolve the issue without worry.

The service Patterson Law provided is excellent and I am happy with the entire process. I can’t think of any improvement needed. As Patterson Law serve my file to the National Taxing Team. Now I just need to wait for the final result of my Defendant’s Costs Order to cover my legal fees, and I am sure I will be keeping informed."

"Thank you for all your support while I was going through this very difficult time. The thought of losing my license was very stressful indeed and from the very minute I spoke to a member of your team I felt a great weight off my shoulder. My case as you know was dismissed mainly because the Admin person for the police did not turn up as their witness. I do feel that it was because of your knowledge and expertise in knowing to request the right witness that caused this decision. I therefore owe you my gratitude in the fact that I still have a clean license."

"I can confirm the receipt of the check sent out for legal fees, thank you and also accepted the offer from the other solicitor I just wish to thank you and Patterson Law for the excellent service that I have received from start to finish and would not hesitate in recommending Patterson Law to any friends or family."


Explanation - This client was previously represented by other solicitors prior to Patterson Law taking over the case. We defended the matter and recovered his fees. We were also able to recover a proportion of the fees that he paid his former solicitors but because so little work had been done that we were not able to recover it all. We then liased with the former solicitors and got them to refund the difference.

To be quite honest Dominic I was very skeptical from the onstart, and I did not hold out much hope that the outcome would be in my favour. However I am absolutely astonished at the decision made at the magistrate's court, and I must point out that without
