Clear, supportive and frequent updates. I felt they were on my team

After looking around multiple Solicitors, I chose MAJ Law based on both reviews and initial consultation,

I spoke to Thomas Wilson (Motoring Law Specialist) in the first instance, and he took his time considering it was a free call and walked me through the process perfectly. Jack Cooper later represented me at my plea hearing. Jack was excellent, he would have been clearly aware I was anxious and he did everything to make me feel comfortable and dealt with anything and everything within his power on the day.

From then on in my defence I was in constant communication with Olivia Ball a Paralegal at MAJ. Olivia was very friendly but also to the point, detailing the reality and also the areas we could contest, as well as being open about the chances and putting the onus and decision on me. She updated me only when necessary.

We ended up getting the result we wanted. As I told Olivia, my review would have been the same regardless, as they did everything they could have done, and there is always going to be a bit of good fortune involved, unfortunately.

With the fixed fee, which not everybody offers, and the clear point of contact, I felt I could speak to Olivia whenever needed. I would highly recommend M.A.J. LAW to anybody reading this.

Absolutely Unreal at what they do!!

Absolutely Unreal at what they do!!

I faced two charges. One of drink drive where I was 3 times over the limit and one of failure to report.

I pled not guilty to DD, very slim chance of being found the same. And guilty to failure to report.

Not only did John Fairhurst and the team around him work tirelessly to get me in the best possible position throughout, they appoint the very best barristers when it comes to court. These guys are the best of the best.

I was acquitted of the drink drive, as they cover every angle, I was looking at a 3 year ban. Incredible result as they had my key evidence thrown out.

But when it came to sentencing on the other charge, as I already had 6 points, I was looking at a ban and potentially prison due to the nature and seriousness, I walked out of court with my licence, a small fine and that’s that.

Not only that, they won 90% costs back for themselves, meaning I will get some of my outlay back. From totally bleak to ecstatic.

They are the best of the best, you may think it’s expensive but if you want cheap and cheerful, say goodbye to your licence and potentially a lot worse.

Thanks MAJ Law. You’re legends

I was facing two driving charges and was completely uncertain what the outcome would be, this week I left court with all charges dropped.
Connor, John, and the team at MAJ, kept me fully informed and eased any worries I had throughout the process and I can’t thank them enough.
They were also the firm which took my case on when others didn’t.
Would highly recommend.

Nick Parsons

I am a HGV Driver, and I trunk throughout the night, and 1 stressful week earlier this year due to personal reasons I obtained several speeding fines over several nights. I contacted M.A.J Law and from the moment I spoke to them I felt reasured and confident they were the right company to help me. Through endless phone calls and emails through my wife, Rebecca Ikpeme and Lucy Mullen were so supportive and worked hard to get my points reduced to 9. The court hearing was the 27th August and James Findon was my Barrister and advocate as I was unable to attend due to work. We dont know how he managed but he got the points reduced down to 3. This has enabled me to keep my job. I can't thank all of you enough. I would highly recommend M.A.J. Law. Regards Nick and Jo

I hired MAJ Law to defend me against…

I hired MAJ Law to defend me against baseless drug driving charges brought by South Wales Police — a case that was ultimately dropped due to lack of evidence. While the legal outcome was favourable, my experience with MAJ Law was far from satisfactory.

They initially quoted a fixed fee of £5,000 + VAT, with the understanding that half would be paid upfront and the remainder in instalments after the case concluded. However, after appointing a barrister for the plea hearing, I was informed that any further attendance would incur an additional £2,500 + VAT. Shortly after, MAJ Law advised that they would not continue representing me unless I immediately paid the remaining £3,000 from the fixed fee — plus an extra £3,000 for the barrister to attend the trial.

This demand came despite clear signs that the CPS was unlikely to pursue the case. I believe MAJ Law exploited my limited familiarity with the legal process to pressure me into paying fees that were neither recoverable nor necessary. The hearing was cancelled, the CPS dropped the charges, and yet the barrister’s fee was not refunded.

In total, MAJ Law retained £9,000 for a case that never went to trial and involved minimal actual representation. Weekly updates were promised but never delivered. Their correspondence with the CPS lacked transparency, and when it came to recovering costs, they advised that only £567 was claimable — the equivalent legal aid rate.

This experience left me feeling financially exploited. If you’re considering MAJ Law, I strongly urge you to scrutinise their fee structure and demand clarity at every stage. Legal representation should be built on trust and transparency — unfortunately, that was not my experience. After this experience, I would suggest anyone in the same position to hire a barrister directly.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re absolutely delighted that we were able to win your case before it reached trial. This successful outcome is a direct result of the hard work shown by Osian and Olivia.

I completely understand your concerns about the costs involved. Unfortunately, we have no control over how much can be recovered through Central Funds – some clients receive significant refunds while others receive less. In your case, the CPS dropped the case just days before trial, by which time your barrister had already been fully briefed, prepared your defence, and made arrangements to attend court. In these circumstances, barristers are entitled to charge a late cancellation fee, which is standard practice across the legal profession.

The key point, though, is that we achieved the best possible result for you – the case was won and you avoided the stress and uncertainty of going to trial. We’re really pleased to have secured this outcome on your behalf and hope it brings you peace of mind moving forward.

Thank you again for choosing M.A.J Law, and we wish you all the very best for the future.
