• Taking a multi-disciplinary approach to ensure our clients entire legal affairs are managed, this has involved referring clients to Commercial Property, Conveyancing, Family (contact orders), Clinical Negligence and Property Litigation.
• Investigating an individual’s finances to provide a gratuitous care report to the Court of Protection to settle a family dispute as to whether a daughter was receiving a reasonable amount of care for looking after her father.
• Investigating a Solicitor who was an Attorney for a client. The investigations revealed the solicitor had financially abused the client by using the funds in her bank account, entering a declaration of trust to place an inherited property into his name and raising invoices for meetings which did not occur. The financial abuse was in the region of £1 million. The result was that the solicitor was struck off by the SRA.
• Assisting with an ongoing Litigation Claim for a child with cerebral palsy. Cansu had to budget the interim payments to ensure that they were enough until such time where the claim was settled.
