“I am a senior member of the legal profession in WA. In 2019 I had cause to secure legal representation for my son who was charged with various offences. I chose Jeremy as my son’s solicitor. I was very happy with what Jeremy did. Jeremy was always on top of the matter. He always provided clear ‘no-nonsense’ legal advice.
Importantly, Jeremy provided strategic advice which I believe resulted in my son receiving sentences no more severe than, and with respect to the most serious offence, less severe than, what we expected.” – SP
“The team at Porter Scudds worked tirelessly on my son’s case. The amount of work and effort that they put in to get the best possible outcome was outstanding. The process of such an intense situation questioned my ability to “last the distance”. But with everyone’s regular communication and careful planning, my mind was put at ease which enabled me to remain calm during this very stressful time. The staff are all extremely professional and approachable as well. My son and I are extremely grateful that the outcome was positive, considering all of the circumstances involved in a decision my son made that day. If you require a professional and hardworking team of Lawyers, I would fully recommend Porter Scudds to provide you with their excellent service. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made because being in a difficult situation you need no one but the best working for you.” – Denise
“These guys are awesome. Very approachable and relaxed. They are very, very efficient. Scuddsie can be abrupt but he is very good at his job. They got my charges dropped and got me costs. Narri is very helpful and good at her job.” – Wayne
“I was charged with sell and supply of kilos drugs. I was innocent. Jeremy and Sutherlan found the evidence to prove it. They showed a roll-over witness to be a liar.
When everyone said I would not get bail, they got me bail. Cameron also got a mate bail on a similar charge. Great lawyers.” – DP
“I had two trials in a space of six months for unlawful possession of large sums money. I was found not guilty on both. I got all my money back.
I was also found not guilty driving under suspension. These guys are super lawyers.” – CK
“I call Jeremy ‘the Lincoln lawyer’ because he is expensive but a great lawyer. He has represented a few members of my family.
He respects and understands our culture and the problems Aboriginals face.
He talks the talk, and walks the walk.” – Brad
“Mr Scudds and Lindy Porter at Porter Scudds are very skilled at their work. Over the years, they have represented my family on a number of matters and in particular, my brother’s charge of murder. He was found not guilty. It was their dedication and tireless effort that proved him to be innocent.
They are very compassionate and caring. They were very supportive of the whole family in a time of crisis. We always put our trust in Allah and thank Allah for sending Porter Scudds to us.” – MN & MIAA
“Sutherlan and the team at Porter Scudds were brilliant. Their team approach allowed them to review volumes of evidence. Through their detailed approach to the evidence, I was acquitted of murder.
They spent long hours preparing the case and during my trial and were able to show the weakness of the prosecution case. They reduced their fees, too. Thank you, thank you.” – VA
