WILLS/TRUST/LPAS

Renaissance Legal
Were the solicitors always recommended to us by the Special Needs schools my son attended as they understood the law around finances for disabled people. We made the first Trust for our son in 2017 then as many of our circumstances had changed we updated the Trust, our Wills and added on LPAs for us in 2024.
If you're not a Solicitor then legalese is completely mind boggling so you need someone understanding in your corner to take that pressure off.
The RL team are friendly and competent and answer e-mails in a timely fashion so queries are sorted fast.
They still offer the option to have a face to face meeting for the initial consultation, which I far prefer over a Zoom call.
I had complete confidence in the work they did and there is peace of mind knowing that there is a structure left behind for your loved one. RL will check up on us in 5 years or so to see if anything needs updating again.

Katherine Miller at Renaissance Legal has been incredibly supportive helping me get the above sorted. She is excellent at explaining everything and extremely prompt at replying to emails.

Impressed

I came to Renaissance via one of the online webinars. I was impressed by the delivery, presentation and knowledge. Having identified a need for a Disabled Person's Trust for our son, it was obvious step to come to Renaissance. I have been impressed throughout by your systems, delivery, way of presenting information to clients and willingness to answer queries. Thank you to Katherine and her entire team.

Patient and clear

Thank you to Katherine and the team for being patient, clear and care to allow us time and space to make sensitive decisions with the key facts and instructions. Specific to our exact needs, a range of communication to allow clear understanding without necessary travel and translation of sometimes complex legal formalities.

Katherine, I'd like to thank you and your team for the extremely professional manner in which our trust was set up. It was efficient, knowledgeable and we appreciated the time taken to enable us, two parents trying to do the best for our daughters and to understand the complexities of disabled trusts.

Excellent service. Fast and efficient. Renaissance Legal was recommended to us on a Facebook group to do our Wills and set up a Trust for our son. Very professional. They even thought of stuff to add in that we would never even think of. Very helpful and highly recommend.

Renaissance Legal worked with us to ensure our sons future was as secure as possible. Katherine and the team discussed our situation and worked through a range of options. We proceeded at the pace that was right for us. The service was bespoke and supportive at all times. We made the decisions but were give clear expert advice to support that process. We now have wills, a trust and the information and confidence to go forward. Entirely recommended.

Mencap recommended Renaissance Legal after we attended one of their workshops for financial planning for parents of learning disabled children. The information they provided was excellent and the process of staging this in the weeks prior to our face to face meeting meant we never felt overwhelmed. Everybody we had dealings with was very professional and knowledgeable and made what is an emotional process much easier. Katherine Miller made writing our wills, setting up a disabled persons trust and letter of wishes very easy and I would recommend Renaissance to other parents who need this service unreservedly.

We first heard about Renaissance Legal when we attended a webinar about Wills and Trusts, organised by the charity SENSE , of which we are members, as we have a profoundly disabled son. We were looking for advice about making a will in the best interests of our family. Philip Warford was articulate, knowledgeable and professional. We have now set up an up to date Will and a Disabled Persons Trust for our son. We are confident that all our financial affairs are in in order to the best possible benefit of our family. This is thanks to the expertise of Katherine Miller and her team who took us through the process seamlessly. We would recommend Renaissance Legal to anyone who has a child or children who are disabled and/or vulnerable who are seeking professional advice in the area of Wills and Trusts. Renaissance Legal are experts in this field.
