The Legal Minefield with John Melia 2025 Episode 1 

Making a complaint could be your legal minefield, and it shouldn't be. After you hear John explain the correct procedures, it won't be. That is the essence of this podcast series - making the inaccessible and difficult easily achievable and understood.  

Topics in this episode:

Making a complaint - how, why and where.                                                                      Social media - it's growing presence in our lives from a legal standpoint.                    Citizen's arrest - it might be good for Michael Voss but there are ramifications.           

Experienced lawyer John Melia gives his thoughts and observations in another frank and honest discussion.
