‘Lorna Halfpenny-Beeby is passionate and enthusiastic about her clients. She is fantastic at advocating for them and gives a sense she really gets to know and understand what their bespoke needs are. Lorna is very approachable and always a delight to talk with’.

‘Jane Bennett is an experienced Court of Protection Deputy, who gives evidence on deputyship fees for both claimants and insurers. She is seen as a realistic witness rather than one who is polarised (and there are many of those). She is also straightforward to deal with and efficient’.

‘Jane Bennett is just excellent. Whether acting as a Deputy or a litigator or both, she is helpful, well prepared, friendly and approachable to the client and fellow professionals alike’.

‘Ian Macara is a highly experienced panel deputy, in addition to possessing experience in other related private client Court of Protection work, such as attorney disputes. Ian manages his cases attentively and proactively’.
