We cannot recommend Samantha and Trudi highly enough. Our daughter had an EHCP that simply was not fit for purpose, and Samantha represented us throughout the appeal process and helped us secure the funding she needed from the Local Authority. Samantha was hugely knowledgeable, professional and approachable from start to finish. She explained everything clearly, guided us through what can be an incredibly difficult and stressful process, and gave us confidence that our daughter’s needs were being properly understood and represented. Most importantly, the outcome was successful and has made a real difference for our daughter. We are incredibly grateful for Samantha and Trudi's expertise, support and dedication, and would highly recommend her to any family needing help with an EHCP or SEND appeal.

I think Samantha is amazing in what she does she is absolutely brilliant and this is the second time she and Trudie have secured a place for my son in a specialist dyslexic school and now sixth form. Not only is she excellent at her job she has saved my son's educational future. I would highly recommend.

Our life has changed immensely for the better now that our daughter has been granted a special school placement. Whereas before there was no hope we can look towards a brighter future - our daughter now able to access education and her mental health is improving every day. I cannot put into words how grateful I am for Samantha and Trudi's help in this matter, I don't know where we would have been without them! Samantha was so patient with us and seemed to genuinely understand the issues we faced. She offered a lot of practical advice and was there with us every step of the way during this long and horrible process. She has given us our lives back as our daughter is thriving both in and out of school. I only wish we had contacted her sooner.

I will never be able to say thank you enough for what Sam and Trudi have done for us. They are amazing ladies. They have supported and have gone above and beyond fighting for my son. I couldn't have done any of this without them. Thank you so much again you amazing ladies.

If you are looking for an outstanding education solicitor look no further than Samantha Trowbridge at Richard Nelsons Solicitors (and her assistant Trudi Salmon) . Navigating the SEN and EHCP system is a minefield and mentally exhausting to the point where you feel broken. Samantha managed to balance brilliant legal strategy with profound empathy, it was as if she was fighting for her own child. She made us feel like we were a team, and she was the captain. When we thought there was no way we could get a favourable outcome, she never gave up the fight, even though we thought we were losing, she gave us hope, and that is what we held on to. She made us feel seen and supported every step of the way. Her (and Trudi's ) communication and support was beyond excellent, and she successfully won our case. I cannot thank her enough for securing an amazing education for my grandson in a specialist school. He now has a chance to be the best he can be and a happy school life. Thankyou doesn't touch the sides.
