Triple AAA service

Where to Start absolutely AAA service
I was in turnoil with a court lawyer
Who
Had no interest in my case.
So I seeked another lawyer and the best decision I ever made was going to McGovern Reid
I was assigned bobby and from the moment he took my case I knew I was in good hands

Fantastic communication
Pulled all the resources he had to in great time
And I was able to get a result that I didn't even think possible
From this experience my choice in lawyer changed my life for the better.

I would highly recommend anybody whither the case is stacked against your odds or not
These guys are your best bet
Evreytime

Matthew and Tom did a great job from start to finish in advising and representing a vulnerable family member in a sensitive case by being understanding throughout, and we can’t thank Matthew enough for the excellent job he did in getting such a good result in the end. Admin staff were also very efficient, helpful and polite, therefore I would have no hesitation in highly recommending McGovern Reid. Thank you. Tricia

Excellent service. The team and Tom especially had my case thrown out and kept me updated and calm throughout the whole process. Have used them before (hopefully won’t need to again) but can’t recommend them and Tom enough
