Ian McKendrick, Frenkel Topping
JE Bennett Law speak in a language that clients and families understand and adapt their style to the individual circumstances presented. It was no surprise that Jane won the honour of obtaining panel status for the Court of Protection, which many firms failed to do. This means that she now attracts recommendations from other solicitors across the UK too. Jane can also be found fronting expert panels for other deputies helping to answer more complex questions.
James Sheedy, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea

Having referred cases for appointment of a Deputy we have found JE Bennett Law to be helpful, reliable and flexible in the way that they have worked with us

Ian McKendrick, Frenkel Topping
I have worked with Jane and the team on a number of matters involving vulnerable clients and their families and I am very happy to recommend JE Bennett Law to any of my clients. The entire team at JEB are very personable, professional and take great care with the individual needs of each client. They are quick to respond and I have first hand experience and feedback from clients and families about the positive impact that Jane and the team have had in helping to change their lives for the better, often under extremely difficult and emotional circumstances.
