Without a shadow of a doubt i would recommend JMW solicitors in Manchester. I initially appointed another firm (cant remember who) but i didn’t feel they had my back. Katie Lowe at JMW however has been fantastic, with some excellent letters to the other side.
My ex wife to be called the police alleging controlling coercive behaviour and assault, for which the police have informed me they will dismiss the case (she provided no evidence). She did this to have me evicted from my own home as the bail conditions prevent me from returning home and contacting her until the 22nd of this month. She also is not allowing me access to my children apart from 6 hours on a Sunday. I have stacks of evidence to suggest her behaviour is the issue here, not mine.
Her allegation of controlling coercive was me turning a light switch off too aggressively. Her allegation of assault – i can demonstrate that she assaulted me first and i used reasonable force (by locking her in the kitchen – albeit there are two other exits) to separate us both and i was acting in self defence for fear of escalation.
If it wasn’t such a sad case regarding the children, its quite comical watching her fall on her sword.
My criminal solicitor from JMW is Ian Lewis who has recently represented Ryan Giggs. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
