• “The advice I received was well reasoned and directed at achieving the best possible outcome. My lawyer was able to ease my concerns, set out the options, and constructively guide me though what ended up being a lengthy process. I felt I could trust my lawyer, and felt confident about the discussion we made on the case. In the end the result was a good one. Also the work he has done on the case to share documents so we always know what was going on with the case at different times was A*. Thank you Aston Luff from Hodge Jones & Allen Solicitors. From me, my mum and my sister for the hard work that you did on the case to make the inquest run smoothly and to get justice for the family at its hard time.It was like we have someone fighting for the small people. Thanks so much Aston.” Wayne Ireson

Professional Comments

• “Aston was absolutely all over the facts, and the important issues, from the outset… That attention to detail, and the ability to identify what mattered and what didn’t, continued throughout the trial. If I was trying to remember where a detail was he was immediately, or very soon, able to find it. The thing people don’t appreciate is that having someone you can trust… enables you to focus on the actual advocacy and to hit back at a witness quickly. It really is so important for a case. He was fabulous. “His judgment was superb. He was able to tactfully push me to think about issues and question my judgment on certain matters, and make me think about things differently… His ability and judgment was fantastic, and definitely got the best out of me. He’s got a lovely manner and has a way with people which is unusual for people with his obvious academic ability… That combination means he can get the best out of counsel. A great skill to have… He was truly dedicated and committed – going to extraordinary lengths to get this case properly presented….. His dedication shone through. “All in all I really, really do want to commend him and thank him for his ability, his dedication and his commitment.His contribution was immense and the family should be eternally grateful to HJA for allocating him to the case. I certainly am.”Katy Thorne QC of Doughty Street Chambers.
