Testimonials

You are THE most sensible, helpful person I have spoken to since last summer when I realised that I needed to sort mum and dad out. The amount of forms I’ve had to fill in, and the hours I’ve spent waiting on the phone – and then there’s you! Fabulous! If I can ever put some work your way, I most definitely will!

Thank you so much once again for being a complete star!

Best wishes,

SB

From start to finish, David and Dianne provided an outstanding level of advice and support. They are extremely skilled professionals who offer a level of care that is exemplary. They provided a very safe pair of hands and they have my unconditional recommendation.

Your service could not have been better.  Once again from Ann and me, thank you & Dianne for your service that went far beyond what anyone could have imagined.

Many thanks for your exemplary work over the past year – it has been a pleasure working with you.

You need these guys by your side as their knowledge and expertise is truly impressive.

I am extremely satisified. They delivered on everything. I was accused of so many things and they proved all the allegations to be false.

You sir are an absolute legend …… on a personal level, it’s thank you so much for all of your help, advice and professional support.

Dear David,

I just wanted to say thank you once again for all of your time and advice yesterday. I really appreciate you being so no nonsense and to the point, it has stood me in good stead to begin my new mission.

Thank you David, you are a great motivator, especially in times when sometimes you just feel like you’d like a break from it all.

Continuing Health Care Enquiry

I really felt that you had our interests at heart and that it was not just about the money.

Case: Financial assessment (means testing), deliberate deprivation of assets and care home fees dispute

“I’m so glad I rang at the beginning and didn’t wait longer…”

I’m so glad I rang at the beginning and didn’t wait longer… You need these guys by your side as their knowledge and expertise is truly impressive.

“Whilst grappling with unfamiliar issues concerning care arrangements for an elderly relative, I discovered Steene Law during an internet search.”

Whilst grappling with unfamiliar issues concerning care arrangements for an elderly relative, I discovered Steene Law during an internet search. From the outset, David Steene was able to offer sound advice and his knowledge of the complexities involved in dealing with the local authority care and assessment protocols proved invaluable.

The satisfactory outcome eventually achieved would not, in my opinion, have happened without the support and intervention provided by Steene Law. The professional expertise offered, facilitated matters throughout a tortuous process.

It should be noted that the circumstances surrounding the financial affairs of my elderly and severely infirm relative turned out to be more complex than originally anticipated. Legal advice was definitely required and in this respect, David Steene’s in-depth knowledge was a much appreciated asset.

Notes: Successful challenge to Local Authority Financial Assessment (means test) resulting in client saving property.

David, could I sincerely thank you for all your help and support over the past two and a half years or so, it has been much appreciated and a sheer delight dealing with you. You have succeeded in making what would otherwise have been an awful matter into one that was not only tolerable but actually enjoyable. A rare talent.

Case notes: Court of Protection issues

Dear David and Dianne, I hope all your family are keeping well. I must apologise for not writing to you sooner as I know how much you did for “C.”

I can’t believe it’s a year since “C” has gone. I think about her every day. Our granddaughter is two now and growing into a proper little madam but she is still gorgeous. My only wish is “C” could be here to see her grow up and to teach her all the things she taught “E”. I enclose a photo of our granddaughter and hope you won’t mind if I write to you in the future.

Case notes: Continuing Health Care, on behalf of a client who had devastating brain injuries. Steene Law fought multiple Local Authorities and branches of the NHS to obtain and keep her care package.)

Thank you once again for your tremendous support and advice in what turned out to be a vexing and tortuous case. From dealing with snotty solicitors to distasteful opposing parties to emotional outburst from your own client, you handled it all with much professionalism and astonishing tactical planning. I truly couldn’t have wished for a better legal team to have my back and look out for my interests. Thank you!

Case notes: Court of Protection issues and the law relating to care fees

First class service. Prompt courteous replies to all questions. Excellent advice given with great patience. I would, without hesitation, recommend Steene Law Ltd. They have helped me and my family through a very difficult time.

Case notes: Assisting client following the collapse of Universal Wealth

I cannot thank David and Dianne enough for the effort and knowledge they displayed helping me deal with my Grandfather’s care and the subsequent legal battle that came with it.

I had a complicated and, to me, bizarre yet worrying situation that David and Dianne both worked tirelessly on.

My Grandfather was a WWII veteran and was neglected and treated as a statistic by a care home and a rather unforgiving council.

I’m grateful that David and Dianne not only got the result I needed, but made it simple to understand and took away a lot of stress. I have recommended them to many others and will continue to do so. Forever grateful!”

Case notes: A successful challenge against a Local Authority that had attempted to act as Deputy to the client’s grandparents. As a result, we prevented their eviction from a care home.

Meantime, once again, thank you so much for all your hard and very professional work on our behalf. I trust, and suspect, that you enjoyed the challenge of something a little out of the ordinary in taking this case!

Thank you so much for all your help with this matter! – it’s very much appreciated.

We would like to thank you for your patience and kindness to us and your professionalism when dealing with Hertfordshire and the NHS. We think we would not be in this position without your input and advice”

After having our world turned upside down by the NHS, we found and made contact with David and his team. For the first time in a fortnight I stopped crying. I stopped being stressed and I could concentrate on nursing and caring for my father as our time together was so precious.

We could not have been better supported and informed. Communication and patience were very much appreciated. Thank you so much.

The first words that comes to mind when I think of the service we have received from Steene Law is professionalism and empathy. It was this together with their patience and commitment that we were able to negotiate the maze of ambiguity and the many obstacles that the authorities laid before us.

We would like to thank them for bringing everything to a successful conclusion and to do it in such a way that it kept stress levels to a minimum.

Keep doing the wonderful work you do, helping folk that would be lost without your kindness and expertise.

We couldn’t have anyone better fighting our corner David, we thank you for your honesty, patience and approachability.

As a result of an internet search and then speaking to Dementia Law, I have been able to secure my family’s financial future and we are not going to lose the home that our parents worked so long and hard for.

For all your hard work and dedication to our cause.

Thank you so much again for your kindness and support, without us even being clients as yet. It is hugely appreciated.

I am so happy that I approached you to handle my friend’s affairs, which I consider to have been carried out in not just a professional manner but also with a caring and humane attitude.

I must not end this communication without saying ‘congratulations’ on successfully conducting this case.

I can’t tell you how glad I was to find you. The care home was being very aggressive in chasing invoices for money that my mother-in-law just did not have. David dealt with the council, the care home, and any other official body that needed to be contacted. You kept me informed at all times and your advice saved me thousands of pounds as the council was out by a whole year with regard to help towards fees. I would never have been able to get through all the red tape on my own and you 100% took the stress out of me having to deal in unfamiliar territory.
