I found Elizabeth Mckinnon while desperately searching for the best barrister to represent my brother, who was facing a horrendous false accusation. Still in shock from my brother’s police interview... Read More and the seriousness of the allegation, I frantically scoured the internet for someone capable of defending him, as we feared the matter would go to court.Ms. McKinnon, along with her legal team, including Mark Martoccia, was absolutely incredible. Despite it being a holiday (Anzac Day), she returned my call immediately, showing both care and reassurance. She promptly scheduled an appointment with us, and her approach to my brother’s case quickly alleviated our family's immense worry. Throughout the process, she was professional, compassionate, and treated us with kindness.Fast forward 4 ½ months, and the police decided not to press charges, closing the investigation. Without Elizabeth’s brilliant mind and dedicated representation, along with Mark’s support, my brother’s life could have been ruined by these false accusations. We are forever indebted to you, Elizabeth—thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
