False Memory Syndrome
There isn’t any preparation for an arrest on historical offences (of the most depraved kind) made worse by the complainant being a family member. I was immediately into a life-changing event and needed a Solicitor. After hearing about ‘false memory syndrome’, I found a company with awareness of this phenomenon and engaged their services. For over two years I received the best support possible with regular updates on the investigation and informative discussions on False Memory. The support I received from Clare Shard and Jessica Wilson was so invaluable that once they set up their own company Eventum Legal I went with them.
They continued to consult with the Police kept me up to date on proceedings and most importantly believed in my innocence. Over two years on from my original arrest, after a thorough investigation, the Police finally decided to ‘take no further action’. They are now taking steps to have the therapist at the heart of the allegations struck off for their failings which allowed these false memories to circulate.
I could not be more grateful to Eventum Legal for their support during this trying time for myself and my family.

Profound Service
Jessica and her team (Jenna and Claire) absolute fantastic lawyers and people who take the time to listen to your concerns and make a plan of action moving forward they are affordable, reliable and professional. Starting off from my free call with Claire was the first step I needed. Jenna was beyond amazing with absolutely everything, I could not have asked anything more from her. She is an absolute credit to Eventum Legal. Thank you all so much!

I can't thank Jessica and her team enough. They dealt with my case with empathy and compassion and were a pleasure to deal with throughout. I thoroughly recommend their services.

allegation
Me and my ex partner separated and access to our son was involved, as a result of this she made some horrible acusasions about me. This meant I was asked to attend the police station for an interview, I contacted Jessica and Clair for help. Claire was the one I spoke to in the first instance Jessica and Claire where absolutely amazing from the first phone call and all the way through the process. Jessica and Claie where always at the other end of the phone to answer any of my questions and provide support when needed. Jessica attended the police station with me for the interview and was a calming presence all the way through after they interview they co timued to chase the police up requestimging updates. During this time they where in regular contact with me and updating me on the progress. With Jessica and Clairs support the police decided on no further action. I can't thank both Jessica and Claire enough I would highly recommend them to anyone who is in need.

Lovely people and very helpful. Highly recommend!
If you are struggling with what to do, or in a difficult situation then Jessica and Claire are 100% the people to go to! They were both amazing from start to finish, Claire will talk you through things and make you realise that things aren’t as bad as first thought and there are people there to help you. They really went above and beyond what they needed to do and it’s been appreciated so much.
Thank you both :)

Outstanding Legal Support!!
Outstanding Legal Support – Highly Recommend
Eventum Legal were exceptional in handling my case when I was falsely accused of coercive and controlling behaviour. From the start, it was clear I had done nothing wrong, but my legal aid solicitors were completely unhelpful—they showed no real interest in my case and put in minimal effort.
That all changed when I contacted Eventum. I had an hour-long call with Claire, who took the time to understand my situation in detail. That conversation alone lifted a huge weight off my shoulders—I finally felt like I had a strong defence team behind me.
Claire and Jessica worked incredibly hard, and just two months after taking on my case, it was no further actioned. I can’t thank them enough for their dedication and professionalism.
If you’re facing false allegations, don’t waste time with legal aid solicitors—go straight to Eventum Legal. You won’t regret it.

Very helpful, supportive who works hard for you
From the outset Jessica and Claire understood my situation and were supportive but realistic. They did a great job of explaining how the process worked and where they could help. Once engaged they were diligent and tenacious in following up despite the lack of response from the police. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend this company!
I cannot recommend Jessica Wilson highly enough! From start to finish, she has demonstrated a level of professionalism and dedication that is truly exceptional! Her communication skills are outstanding and she explained every step of the process in clear, straightforward terms and made sure I was fully informed and comfortable with each decision.
Unfortunately I initially instructed the wrong solicitor and with hindsight I should have carried out more research. I have learnt a valuable lesson and am now confident that I have the right representation in place!
