Drew Carr was professional and efficient from the first contact. He responded promptly, explained the situation clearly, and provided a referral to a colleague better placed to assist with my traffic matter. Great communication and very helpful overall.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review I received an unexpected but greatly appreciated call from Drew from Andrew John Carr Solicitors (Newcastle) after a LawConnect notification. Andrew explained he was not sure why the notification came through, but he took the time to call me anyway — entirely without charge. From the outset, Andrew was direct, calm, and honest. He reviewed my situation and provided clear, practical advice in plain English, without legal jargon or sales pressure. In particular, he: Confirmed that my subjective material was exceptionally well organised, noting it was better prepared than most he had seen in a long time Advised that a guilty plea on a limited factual basis (accepting the bottle only, not push/grab) was realistic and appropriate Confirmed that a Conditional Release Order (CRO) without conviction was a realistic outcome Confirmed that consenting to an ADVO on a without-admissions basis was also realistic Explained that seeking to have the push/grab aspect clarified or amended prior to court was sensible What stood out most was Andrew’s integrity. He had no financial incentive, yet still gave thoughtful, practical guidance and, within minutes, referred me via SMS to a suitable Sydney lawyer who could assist further. This was the most honest, straightforward, and client-focused legal interaction I have had. I would confidently recommend Andrew John Carr Solicitors to anyone seeking clear, frank advice without unnecessary complexity or pressure.
After initially being self represented, I engaged Drew's services to finalise a recent matter for me in court. Drew was more than happy to discuss the matter with me after hours due to my work commitments, his professionalism was outstanding. He always spoke on a more personal level rather than just talking about the legal side of things. His fees were more than reasonable and I was satisfied with the outcome of the matter. I highly recommend Drew for any legal matter.
Andrew carr is far more than a lawyer. He represented me in my most vulnerable state. Not only did I have a business experience but I felt like I made a friend. His intellectual ability, and a warming nature was remarkable. Being able to manifest all the glorious days ahead was his comforting words. .
I had an excellent experience with Solicitor Andrew. From our first conversation, Andrew was patient, understanding and highly professional. He took the time to listen to my situation, explained my rights in clear, simple language, and made sure I understood every step before we moved forward. His legal knowledge and skill are impeccable, but what stood out even more was his empathy and the calm, steady way he guided me through the process. Andrew was culturally sensitive, never rushed me, and checked in often to make sure I was comfortable with each decision. He set realistic expectations, kept me updated, and was always available to answer questions. I never felt lost or alone in the process. If you’re looking for a solicitor who combines expertise with real care for his clients, I strongly recommend Andrew John Carr. He made a stressful situation manageable and gave me confidence at every stage. Five stars.”
