My two sons have both used breydons for years and have nothing bad to say about rob new or Arthur balls both are very professional both in court and outta court but like I've read in previous comments once it goes to crown court ya not met with the same standards my son had to beg for bail as the barrister stood up and said unless he has a good enough reason as to why he wernt at court on the day he was meant to be there then his future is looking very dole and sat back down didn't explain as to why he wasn't there didn't even as to speak to my son before court so when the judge asked if he anything

Robs expert knowledge and client compassion put me at ease when charged with a minor traffic offence. A willingness to listen and understand the case whilst ensuring I was informed throughout! Fantastic, thank you for your support.

Don't ever use this firm, completely unprofessional and unresponsive. Would not give me direct contact details of solicitor handling my case and after 5 days of not being able to contact Natasha Nair or Rob New
I gave up. I'm sure if I was a private client paying large fees I would have been a higher priority but as its legal aid they couldn't care less. Wouldn't even visit the custody centre because of covid even though all the other legal firms do so perhaps not covid related at all just see it as a great excuse to not do their job. I have made a complaint to the legal ombudsman.

Complete failure of service, with their barrister essentially sabotaging me in court. No response to complaint by Breydons. Reported to legal ombudsman and being investigated.

Report
Previously, I had sought advice from Fosters (Norwich) regarding my day in magistrates court. However, I popped into Breydon's in Norwich as I happened to be passing by.. I was asked more about my case within 10 minutes on the phone with Claire (from Breydon's) than a 45 minute meeting with Fosters. From start to finish, I felt that Claire represented me perfectly. I hope that I wont need her services again, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to contact her. Highly recommended.
