What Clients Say

“I contacted several regulatory solicitors for help when the SRA first set out the allegations against me. The quotes I received from each solicitor varied significantly. Although Jon’s quote was a little more than some of the others, in my eyes this was justified as he had significant experience working for the SRA investigating cases like mine. He understood the gravity of my circumstances and explained the likely route of the SRA, which would potentially have been a referral to the SDT that could have been career ending.

Jon expertly crafted a response to the SRA that demonstrated his vast industry experience and his ability to foresee and engage with every point the SRA were likely to consider in my case. He called on historical and recent case law and his arguments clearly demonstrated he knew how the SRA worked. I would never have been able to draft arguments nearly as thorough if I had represented myself. Jon’s inside knowledge is second to none and pervaded the management of and correspondence with the SRA.

After a lengthy wait of 6 months, the SRA decided no further action would be taken. Jon’s response to the SRA had saved my career. His insight and experience dealing with the SRA had clearly made all the difference. I can now put this stressful event behind me.

In choosing to work with Jon, you will feel reassured but importantly, he will tell you exactly where you stand. It is vitally important to confront the circumstances when dealing with a regulatory body, Jon helps you stand up and enables you to present your very best case.

I have no hesitation in recommending Jon to fellow professionals.”
