For an endless 2 years The Defenders were looking after my case. They had to be in court uncountable times, they had to read my case million times and it was a battle against a multi-million dollars company + police as prosecutors.
Today the magistrate came with a conclusion and I won!!! The Defenders won my case and many other cases as I came to them after checking Google Reviews.
I want to leave my review here because that's how I can help other people in need of GREAT solicitors.
If you are reading until now, please trust me when I say: They are fair, they only charge what they need to and

I had a Conditional release order with conviction for which I took assistance from Pasquale my solicitor from Benjamin and Leorardo Sydney to change the matter from conviction to non-conviction. He worked very hard to get success in this matter where the chance were very low for getting the result I needed. Pasquale did a great job in getting all the necessary material required for the case and got the result which I wished for.
Thank you very much Pasqulae for your assistance.
