“In October 2013, I left Hedleys & Co Solicitors as my position was untenable such was my concerns regarding accounting practices and irregularities at the Firm. As a whistleblower I contacted my regulator, the SRA but was then in retaliation by Leo Johnston, the Firms sole equity partner subject to a counter allegation I had pocketed cash from clients for legal services delivered by me. This was simply untrue but resulted in my arrest in Dec 13. Thereafter followed a protracted police investigation lasting three years before being charged Oct 16, that was not impartial but instead one which looked to make the evidence fit. Supported, represented and legally advised by Andrew McGee of MMA Law we pursued multiple disclosure applications to uncover and systematically discredit these false allegations and prove my innocence. This was a complex and time consuming task as we faced taking on the resources of CPS Northumbria Complex Case Unit who in conjunction with the Officer in the Case sought wilfully or negligently to put forward a stilted and inaccurate representation of my financial circumstances and indeed conduct at the Firm I worked. On 25th January 2020 I was found unanimously not guilty by a Jury at Newcastle Crown Court. My defence team at MMA led by Andrew McGee in conjunction with experienced learned Counsel Anne Whyte QC of QED Hollis Whiteman and Amos Waldman of Dougherty Street Chambers were able to uncover, dissect and prove my innocence, compelling the crown to make admissions of fact about the financial irregularities, complaints history and particularise the numerous adverse findings against Leo Johnston the man at the helm of the woeful Firm Hedleys & Co of Sunderland. Without the expert representation of Andrew McGee, flawless case preparation by all at the Firm and solid robust advice received I know that I would have been subject to a miscarriage of justice and risked losing my liberty and career. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending anyone to this Firm. They go above and beyond and offer exceptional service where you always know your case is their foremost priority where they truly care.”

“I have recently been represented by Matthew Agar in a family matter regarding the custody arrangements for my children. The information, advice and guidance provided to me by Matthew has been nothing short of outstanding. I spoke to several solicitors before instructing Matthew. Despite there being larger more established companies out there, I was immediately struck by Matthew's down to earth nature, something which has been, during such an emotional time, a real life line. The legal system and the emotionally fuelled feelings, worries and concerns of a parent do not really fit well together and with other solicitors I spoke to, I did not feel they saw or understood the impact the outcome of the process would have on my children. With Matthew this was not the case, he was calm, fair, rational and put my mind completely at ease. I felt listened to and understood as he guided me through the legal process, focussed entirely on my children. Matthew dealt with all aspects of the case with a high degree of professionalism throughout. When things got difficult (as I suspect they often do in these cases) Matthew was responsive and reassuring, whilst always maintaining a fair and level headed approach. Despite my children's father throwing everything he had at the case and appointing a barrister to represent him in court, Matthew's extensive knowledge of my case and manner within the courtroom meant I had the confidence to clearly articulate my views and perhaps more importantly those views were heard and accepted by the judge. Matthew never made any promises, but his confidence gave me confidence, I'm delighted to say that the Judge in this case agreed with all of the suggestions made within the well considered position statement Matthew had drafted on my behalf. The dream result. I hope that I will never need legal representation again, but if I did I would not hesitate in contacting this firm again. I can not recommend Matthew highly enough, nor will I ever be able to put in to words the difference his representation has made to both the lives of my children and myself.”

“I used MMA, specifically Andrew McGee for a pretty serious case, which lasted about 18 months from start to finish. I couldn't be happier with them. Andrew was hard working, very professional and had fantastic knowledge of the law and judicial system. I can't recommend MMA highly enough. In the unlikely event I need a solicitor in the future, the firm I will use is MMA.”
