Lawtons Criminal Defence Solicitors  レビュー 

From start to finish, I felt completely validated, protected and looked after by Joanne. A frustrating experience with the police was comforted by the guidance and support I got from her. Frequent updates and the constant chasing for answers, I couldn’t recommended this law firm or Joanne more. Thank you for everything you have done for me and my family.

I would highly recommend Finbarr Cuneen, he provided excellent support and advice. His calm, knowledgeable and helpful manor helped me get through a very tough two months. Always stayed in contacted and provided necessary updates on my case. Lawton’s are very luckily to have such a good solicitor in their team.

clear and timely advice. Taking the time to explain each possible outcome and why. Good email responses and keeping those, in the need to know, informed. Approachable to answer concerns/questions.

I honestly cannot recommend Kajel at Lawton’s Criminal Defence Solicitors highly enough, if I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would.

From start to finish, Kajel was nothing short of exceptional. Her professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail were outstanding, but what really stood out was how much she genuinely cared. She took the time to explain everything clearly, kept me informed at every stage, and made a very stressful situation feel far more manageable. You can tell straight away that she knows exactly what she’s doing and fights hard for her clients.

A massive thank you as well to Patrick and Keith, who were both incredibly supportive throughout the process. Their help, communication, and reassurance made a huge difference, and I’m truly grateful for everything they did.

The whole team at Lawton’s Criminal Defence Solicitors went above and beyond for me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing expert legal support. Absolutely first-class service from genuinely good people.

Thank you again for everything , I’ll always appreciate it.

Joanne and Tamasin have been exceptional.
I would highly recommend using Lawtons. My experience from beginning to the conclusion of my case was amazing, despite the stresses of my ongoing legal battle I was made to feel at ease with all of my questions answered clearly.

Joanne Cestaro has been fantastic in supporting me, consistent communication and guidance throughout has been fantastic.

Tamasin Graham did an exceptional job representing me at Crown Court. Despite feeling extremely anxious for my trial, Tamasin was reassuring and kept me updated throughout so I never felt unsure of what was going to happen next.

As a result of Joanne and Tamasin’s efforts, my trial concluded on the first day as I was found not guilty of all charges.

If you find yourself requiring legal representation, I would not hesitate in recommending Lawtons. You will not be disappointed.

As a next of kin to someone found in the court system, I found Finbarr Cuneene to be very supportive, he gave honest and realistic information, he was kind and easy to talk to. Finbarr sent all information requested and answered any questions asked. Many thanks.

Keith Simmonett very experienced, professional and supportive. Would highly recommend.

I am very grateful to Lawtons Law for their assistance in resolving my case. Christopher Wilson provided clear communication throughout and helped bring the matter to a formal conclusion. I appreciated the straightforward advice regarding the outcome and the next steps. Highly recommended for their professional service.

I found Lawtons, and especially Joanne Cestaro who handled my case, provided an excellent service from start to finish. Having found myself in a difficult situation with no idea how to proceed, I was given advice that was completely honest and invaluable. Joanne was professional, engaging and always kept me fully abreast of what was happening. Patrick O'Reilly also provided superb representation. I would highly recommend Lawtons.

I would appreciate Kim in particular who was very supportive and helpful throughout my case. I would recommend this firm 100 times for the amazing job they do.
Please, do not hesitate to seek their advice and help. They are spot on!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Mr Paul Dillon of Lawtons Solicitors for the outstanding way he handled and prepared the defence of my Crown Court case.

From the outset, Mr Dillon was calm, measured, and exceptionally thorough. He took the time to explain each stage of the process clearly, which made an extremely stressful situation far more manageable. His preparation was meticulous, strategic, and clearly well thought through — nothing was left to chance.

His communication with me was speedy and consistent, at all times too.

I was also impressed by his judgment in selecting the right barrister for my case. The choice proved to be absolutely correct, and it was evident that careful consideration had gone into assembling the strongest possible team. That decision alone demonstrated both experience and insight.

Throughout the entire process, I felt properly advised, fully supported, and confidently represented.

I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Dillon and Lawtons Solicitors to anyone requiring high-quality criminal defence representation.

Nick was very professional. Attentive, conscientious, understanding, knowledgeable, very good communication, highly recommend. Thank you.

I cannot recommend this firm highly enough. Having used them twice now, I can say with certainty that they are professional, dedicated, and incredibly supportive. Both times they proved my innocence and got the result I needed. It’s rare to find solicitors who genuinely care about you, but they always have your best interests at heart. You simply couldn't ask for more

Polite professional and to the point

In total, my case lasted for over 2 years. Throughout its entirety, Glen provided exceptional advice and support and was always available when ever I called. I was kept informed on a regular basis providing legal representation that exceeded all expectations.
Having been able to conclude my case, I can, without doubt, highly recommend Glen and Lawtons Solicitors and will be forever grateful for Glen's contributions.

This was a difficult time for us, and having such capable and trustworthy legal support made all the difference.
We truly felt supported and would not hesitate to recommend this firm — especially Joanne Cestaro and Janice Brennan — to anyone needing strong, compassionate, and highly skilled legal representation.Both showed genuine care, professionalism, and unwavering commitment. Thanks to their expertise and tireless advocacy, we achieved the best possible result at the end of the trial, something we will always be grateful for. Thank you.

Toni was very professional, caring patient and good listener.
In a very difficult and stressful time she helped us through the situation and the result was we the outcome was quicker and better than we hoped for.
We would definitely recommend her.

I was falsely accused for sexual Harassment, and was arrested for the first time in my life. I was traumatised and afraid of what might happen. Then I met this great Man Aaron, who first consoled me and made sure I am relieved. He then took my case to the Police and made them aware of this false accusation. I was released from the Cell within two hours with no charge and further Action. This will always be remembered with utmost respect and gratitude. Aaron was such a nice person, professional, kind and friendly at the same time. Hey AARON , thanks for your help, you wont believe what trauma i was going through! Once Again Thanks Lawton Criminal Defence Solicitors and Specially AARON!

After an incident in July 2025, my husband and I found ourselves in a very difficult situation and urgently needed a criminal defence solicitor.

We spent several hours researching firms and making calls on a Sunday morning, expecting little to no response. To our relief, Paul from Lawtons returned our call that same day—something we truly did not expect. From the very beginning, he was calm, realistic, and incredibly supportive, which we greatly appreciated.

Having never experienced anything like this before, it was one of the most frightening and overwhelming moments of our lives. Paul’s extensive experience was immediately evident; he had handled similar cases many times before, which made us feel genuinely supported and in safe hands.

Paul guided us through every stage of the process, clearly explaining each step and always being available to answer our questions. He also recommended an outstanding KC (Maria) for our representation, and together they worked tirelessly throughout this difficult situation.

I am pleased to say the outcome was in my favour, my husband awaits next steps. I owe a great deal to Paul and Maria for the exceptional preparation and dedication they showed, which ultimately led to this result.

I also want to thank Kriti, a graduate paralegal who assisted. She has recently joined Lawtons and is currently completing her solicitor training. She was a pleasure to meet, even under such difficult circumstances, and I have no doubt she will go far in her career.

Dawn McKnight was absolutely fantastic, she performed at a top level through out and I highly recommend anyone in need of her services to get in touch with her. Thanks again!
