A leading Warwickshire law firm’s services for older people have proved to be so popular it has led to the launch of a specialist unit.
The new department at Leamington-based Wright Hassall has been more than six months in the planning and is being headed up by solicitor Claire McGinnity. It is to be known as Wright Future.
Legal services provided by the team include powers of attorney, court of protection matters for people suffering from debilitating conditions, long-term care planning, management of clients’ financial affairs and estate planning.
Claire, who is a member of Solicitors for the Elderly, said: “Bringing all our expertise together will further strengthen the level of service we provide and will enable us to meet the needs and concerns of older people and those who provide for their care.”
“Managing day-to-day financial affairs can be very stressful and we can help to ease this burden. If unexpected changes happen, we can respond quickly and work with clients and their families to find a solution.
“We can visit people in their homes, or in hospital if clients need assistance urgently and I know our older clients appreciate that we understand their individual requirements.”
“Our Wright Future team has considerable experience of the matters that affect our older clients any many of them will benefit from the services we can offer.”
Working with Claire in the new team is solicitor Michael Wall, taxation assistant Gill Warren and secretary Sarah Spencer.
