Professional, personalised and charismatic approach
Amanda has been my chosen Lawyer on three separate occasions
As anyone knows being investigated in relation to a criminal offence is very daunting and really imparts your mental state of mind straight away Amanda was able to identify the key issues and worked closely with me to ensure any evidence I had to prove my innocence and undermine the credibility of the individuals who made the complaints was quickly and proactively sent across to the police within a timely fashion Amanda is very knowledgeable very passionate and treat you with the respect you deserve ensuring your welfare in custody and throughout the process is held the highest of standards because of this approach my innocence was proven. Amanda also possesses heavily experience in military law and MAJOR administer action. AGA67 so having the luxury of somebody who possesses extended amount of experience and civilian and military law was an added bonus. I cannot recommend enough that if you ever find yourself in a situation please reach out to her be upfront honest give her as much information as you possibly can even if you feel embarrassed and I promise you Amanda will do what she can to ensure you have the right outcome. Amanda is a realist you understands how life works so you can have full faith that you are dealing with a fantastic person the level of service is outstanding from me initially contacting Amanda to explain there had been police involvement as soon as we were off the phone she was straight away in contact with the police arranging everything to get the matter put to bed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Amanda is not frightened to question the police during an interview and also hold them to account which is very refreshing promoting fair practice. Sometimes the police tend to believe a victim but this is something which Amanda identifies quickly and ensures that due diligence is carried out fairly as the police are duty bound to investigate on behalf of a victim not believe them so be rest assured you are in very capable hands.
Thank you, Amanda for everything you have done and thank you for treating me like a person with a Tailored service

Military investigation - Tackled with knowledge and professionalism
I cannot recommend Amanda Sheppard at E L Legal highly enough. She provided outstanding legal support during an incredibly stressful time, helping me navigate two investigations. Both involving the Military Police. Thanks to her expertise, diligence, and unwavering commitment, both investigations were ultimately dropped.
From the start, Amanda was calm, thorough, and highly knowledgeable about military law and procedure. She was always available to answer my questions, clearly explained every step of the process, and fought tirelessly to protect my interests. Her professionalism gave me real confidence during an otherwise uncertain period.
If you're facing military legal issues, Amanda is exactly the kind of solicitor you want in your corner.

Professional and compassionate service
We engaged E&L Legal's services to assist with a case involving our son.
I initially contacted Amanda there as she was the duty solicitor.
She was very open, honest and patient with all my many questions about the process to follow.
I was able to follow up with further questions via Wattsapp, which she always answered promptly and clearly.
Amanda clearly explained each stage of proceedings and the range of possible outcomes that might ensue.
On the day of the court case, I was impressed by her professional representation for my son.
This helped to secure a fair and best-case outcome for my son.
I'd highly recommend E&L Legal and Amamda in particular.
Thank you.
