  Big Jimmy from Wigan about McKenzie Friend Richard Pearson

I can’t recommend Richard Pearson highly enough. He was incredibly thorough throughout the whole process and took the time to make sure I understood what was happening and was properly prepared.

Going into court, I was understandably very nervous, but Richard was brilliant at keeping me calm and focused. He was always patient, reassuring and able to cut through the noise when I was getting overwhelmed. He even spoke to me on the phone outside court to help me get my head straight before going in, which genuinely made a huge difference.

Having Richard there gave me a lot more confidence on what was a very difficult and stressful day. He clearly knows his stuff, but more importantly, he actually cares about the person he is helping.

I’m extremely grateful for everything he did for me and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs a McKenzie Friend
