Amending ehcp and placement

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.

Education

Outstanding in every way

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.

Great service and support

Samantha’s support throughout our son’s EHCP and annual review meetings was invaluable. Despite the ongoing complexities and rigidity of the process, her guidance enabled us to identify important factors we hadn’t previously considered and to build a strong case for our son’s change of provision. Her expertise was instrumental in securing the right provision for him and in navigating the whole process; there is absolutely no doubt about that. I would not hesitate to recommend her services and request her help in the future when needed. We are deeply grateful for her dedication and for helping us achieve the best possible outcome for our son.

Excellent Service and Support

I can’t thank Samantha Trowbridge enough for her incredible support throughout our EHCP journey.  From the very first consultation, she was professional, understanding, and genuinely committed to helping us achieve the best outcome for our daughter. She guided us through every step of the process with clear explanations, expert advice, and real compassion.  Her attention to detail, knowledge of the law, and dedication made such a difference and ultimately, led to the positive result that has truly changed our daughter’s future. What stood out most was how approachable and responsive she was.  How she held those organisations involved accountable to their commitments and their deadlines.  No question ever felt too small, and every concern was handled with patience and care.  It was such a relief to have someone so capable and supportive on our side! I would highly recommend Samantha Trowbridge and her team to any parent or carer going through the EHCP process and have done so. Her professionalism, empathy, and determination are second to none. Thank you again for helping us achieve the outcome we so desperately needed!
