Haighs Law Firm already has numerous clients who are most delighted with our work. To give you better insight, here are some of their testimonials.
I had a feeling that this would turn out that way but you were great. Very professional and calming. It’s great to know that in the future if anything similar happened you’d be there. Thanks very much.
Again a huge thank you for everything you have done. I can't tell you how relieved I was when the District Judge dismissed our case. Throughout the process, you have been honest, professional and very approachable. I knew whatever guidance you provided had my best interests and was more than happy to follow your guidance. I really do mean it when I say I've appreciated everything you have done.
I have now seen both Ben Haigh and Matthew Savage successfully represent colleagues during criminal interviews, at both Magistrates and Crown Court, Gross Misconduct hearings and Gross incompetence hearings. We instruct Ben and Matt to represent our Officers because it is the best advice we can give those Officers in their time of need.
