Setting up a disabled person trust, and lasting power of attorney

5

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.

I first met Philip at my house when my Wife was first diagnosed with Early onset Alzheimers Disease. He gave us some very good sound advice on a few financial matters.
When my Wife passed away, just over two years ago I went back to Philip and he put me onto Gina in the Company to sort out my Wife's Probate. She did an extremely great job in dealing with it and, well worth every penny spent with her.
Thank you Gina.
