Sean Reilly: Testimonials
Sean was very professional and was able to provide exceptional legal advice when representing my 17yr old son, his communication skills were excellent and he was able to reassure my son and give him a full explanation of the anticipated outcome, putting him at ease. He liaised with the Police Inspector to ensure that the correct procedure was followed, enabling my son to come home. I would highly recommend him and his organisation.
