What Our Clients Say

kevin young

I had reason to call Steene Law for advise regarding a dispute I had with my local council regarding my late father’s care funding. My initial contact was polite and courteous. I received a callback from David who took the time to listen and understand my problem. Although he didn’t give me the answer I was hoping for, he was extremely empathetic and gave me clarity to move through my frustration (re. the attitude of the council). I’m really pleased that I had the opportunity to speak to David. I feel like a weight has been lifted. There was no charge for the advice, which in today’s world is rare indeed.

My father had a parkhome, and it went on for years with the council trying to take it to pay for his care,but David kept on and on and after years he sorted it. 100% Happy. Great service.

I contacted David out of the blue seeking some advice, despite not being a client of his. From the very first conversation, he was incredibly helpful, professional, and generous with his time. David took the time to listen, explain things clearly, and provide guidance without any obligation. What stood out most was David’s kindness and willingness to help someone who wasn't even a client. It's rare to come across such genuine professionalism and compassion. I am extremely grateful for the support and would not hesitate to recommend David at Steene Law Ltd to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, approachable, and trustworthy solicitor. Thank you again for your help David, it was greatly appreciated.

Russell

I cannot thank David and his team enough for all the guidance and expertise over the issues caused by the local authority and care home relating to my mother. David put my mind at ease over contractual obligations and acted very quickly to resolve. I would not hesitate to recommend David and his company to anyone struggling with Care Homes, Local Authority’s and the OPG.

Gavi Sandhu

I found David Steele very passionate about his role. In fact he called me on a Sunday to take down some details. In my desperation not knowing how far an OPG investigation can go or take he was very re assuring. In fact I was told how the events would pan out in advance as I was in territory which was foreign to me. David was right in what he said and predicted. My mother’s case ended up being heard at the high court due to abuse by a family member who obtained the attorney ship . I found David on google and have stayed in contact for almost the last 2 years. I’m very re assured and although the outcome is not what any of us family members wanted in the end it took away the mental and financial abuse that could see. I just didn’t know how to go about it not sure if my accusations would be taken seriously etc but luckily David has no doubt heard cases like mine many times. I thank David for his knowledge and experience it really came through from the initial contact , his enthusiasm and drive I really admired from the outset and to call me Sunday morning to discuss it was a real bonus. How many professionals call on a Sunday ? I’m very grateful to him. I really 100 pc recommend his services he will hold your hand and re assure you and manage your expectations. I can’t praise him highly enough. Thankyou David very much. Will remain in contact with you

Susan Field

We are extremely grateful for the advice and guidance we received. Everything was explained clearly, and we were given a realistic and balanced view of the possible outcomes, which helped us make an informed decision. Although we ultimately decided not to proceed due to the risks and financial uncertainty involved, the candid and thoughtful advice we received was invaluable. We truly appreciated the openness, reassurance, and support during a very difficult time. Highly recommended for anyone seeking clear, professional, and honest advice.

John S

We cannot thank David at Steene Law enough for all the time he gave us, we did not ever feel rushed by David and he understood our situation perfectly. We feel we can now progress, being aware of all the nuances around deprivation of assets. We are now fully briefed on the approach that we should take and are so grateful we spoke with David because he has helped us to avoid making a mistake which would very likely have impacted us financially in the future. We would thoroughly recommend Steene Law, they have kept our costs to a minimum and we feel that our interests were always at the heart of their approach; in short, Steene Law have been unbelievably caring and considerate.
