EVAN DOWD REVIEWS

I employed Mr Evan Dowd for representation of a serious criminal matter. Mr Dowd was very professional, respectful and discreet. At all times he was understanding, approachable and non-judgemental which gave me great peace of mind. He was extremely efficient and progressed the matter effectively to receive the best possible outcome. When needed Mr Dowd employed a Barrister who also gave excellent representation. His costing was very reasonable and I definitely feel I received great value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Evan Dowd for criminal matters as well as other legal matters. As far as I am concerned Hennessy Dowd Lawyers are now my family lawyers for all legal matters big or small. Words cannot express how thankful I am to Evan for all he has done to help my family through a bad situation.

Evan went above and beyond and in the most professional manner and was nothing but supportive and friendly. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Evan and the team at Hennessy Dowd , we were very happy with the outcome, An outstanding solicitor.

Evan & his team are very professional, have extensive knowledge and expertise in their field and help their clients to understand the legal process. A great result was achieved by me in a short timeframe! Highly recommended!
