Found myself in a horrible position where I needed the services of a solicitor and was very fortunate to come across Football Law Associates. Melanie Cooke was my initial contact and put my mind at rest within a few minutes of talking to her. Melanie is extremely professional and understanding, whilst offering fantastic guidance.
Patrick
Rob helped me a lot during my case back in April 2024. I had a case of assault against me due to an allegation made against me due to an act of self defence from myself. Rob was amazing and supportive with everything and made the process very comforting and it helped me a lot
Gregg
I would definitely recommend Football Law Associates. Rob Perkins dealt with my case and was available to answer my calls or call be back. He also kept me updated and explained everything. Nothing was rushed. He represented me in a very professional manner and ensured I understand every possible outcome.
Jonny
I needed support for a matter and stumbled across FLA. They have directed and advised me across a number of court appearances and complicated law matters and their service has been extremely professional and excellent.
Dean
I had a really good experience with Rob and the team. The service provided is professional throughout and really helped me achieve the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend the FLA and Rob to anyone who finds themselves in need of a solicitor for football related offences.
