Setting up a disabled person trust, and lasting power of attorney
First rate professional service on both tasks.
We picked Renaissance after hearing one of the partners speak at a free seminar on setting up trusts. All of that good advice and knowledge was evident as they walked us through the steps needed to set up a trust for our disabled son and help us ensure our own affairs were in order.
Having a disabled child is full of things to worry about - thanks to the team at Renaissance there are now 2 big topics we do not have to include on that list.

Specialist understanding or predicaments of families with a severely disabled member. Direct personal service i.e. one lawyer dealing with everything. Clarity on fees, nothing unexpected.
