After reviewing one of our Court of Protection clients welfare benefit payments we have secured a back dated payment of £22,000 from Aug 2021, monthly income from £0 – £1,502. Together with a previously secured ESA payment of £16,901.30 our client has received a total of £39.216.30 which he did not realise he was entitled to without the support of his Deputy Oliver Banks and his amazing team.
Commended for their expertise
I initially spoke to Mary in Garstang Office to enquire about setting up a Power of Attorney, Mary was polite and explained in detail what was required.
I next spoke to Lisa who gathered all of the personal information required to draw up the POA and this was followed up by a home visit from Mary for my part to be signed. This was very much appreciated as a disabled, elderly person.
These two young ladies are to be commended for their expertise and the respect shown to me.
Perfect Experience
Our experience was just perfect. A good listener, knows her products well, willing to advise, confident yet modest. An asset to the team.
