Mr Williams was really kind and helpful. We had a court of protection case and he was restricted in that he could say. However, he understood us. He always answered us quickly and where allowed by the authorities. We really appreciate his help and care.

Samantha Hamilton

Thanks for your review! Mullis & Peake LLP Solicitors Your review is pending.Read more Helen carey 2 reviews GB Rated 1 out of 5 stars Samantha Hamilton has been dealing with… Samantha Hamilton has been dealing with my daughters finances since 2015 since my daughter moved into residential care . She has never met my daughter who is mentally and physically handicapped with rett syndrome with no capacity but when I asked for items for her that she needs to help her in her daily life , wheelchair mobility car ect all I get told is my daughter does not have enough money which I find unbelievable as in the 9 years they have dealt with her finances my daughter has only had peanuts of them and keep refusing items that she really needs . They have allowed her money to accumulate so much that dwp have now stopped her benefits so please can someone make this make sense in my head that she has no funds but yet dwp have stopped her benefits because she has to much money that they have just let accumulated over the 9 years . I have never even spoken with Samantha Hamilton or set eyes on her and neither has my daughter so how can someone make these decisions when they don't even understand my girls needs . How is my daughter supposed to access the community and she has missed out on so much like weddings and family functions because there is no way of getting her to these places without an adapted vehicle . We are taking black cabs everywhere which is costing a small fortune and I am left to buy everything she needs out of my own pocket because it kills me to see her go without when there is no need for this as she had plenty of funds that they refuse her access to . So I'm sorry my advise is to avoid this company if you wish your loved ones to have a good standard of life then go somewhere else because she had taken my poor daughters life away and allows her to live in poverty when there is no need for this . I'm treated like some common crimal and get told that she hasn't got a bottomless money when I ask for things that my daughter actually needs. My daughter has grown out of her wheelchair and her feet are actually falling through the foot rest so when asked to purchase a new one I was told to go to NHS which is around a years waiting list and we did actually go to NHS in March of this year and she got refused because all they can offer her is a basic wheelchair which just isn't suitable for her needs . I have had enough now so will be complaining to everyone that mattes until we can get the power of attorney taken of this company Date of experience: 20 June 2024

We are not able to respond directly to confidential client information. However, we can respond generally. Samantha Hamilton is a Panel Deputy which means that she is appointed by the Court of Protection in cases where an independent person needs to act as deputy to manage finances for individuals needing assistance. Unfortunately, this can be in cases of conflict within a family or where the Court has found that a family member is not able to act as deputy. Deputies are supervised by the Office of the Public Guardian and provide annual reports on management of finances. This includes detailing all income and spending, along with decisions made on behalf of the person. In accordance with the Mental Capacity Act 2005, a deputy must manage finances in a person’s best interests. Family members do not always agree on these decisions, but they take into account the person’s capital, income and age. The deputy needs to ensure that finances are managed to ensure funds are available for future as well as current needs. Reasons for these decisions are communicated, including that sometimes funds are awaited before purchases or final decisions can be made. We are required to ensure that the work we do is undertaken at the appropriate level, so the deputy might not meet the person on a regular basis, but others in the department will be in regular contact and arrange meetings as appropriate and necessary. Face to face meetings can be more difficult to organise when a client is moved a great distance away to be closer to family members.

We were very pleased with the quality of the service and friendly welcome at the office. The solicitor who spoke to us listened attentively and sympathetically as well as providing us with clear and detailed answers to our questions. The will was drawn up accurately according to our instructions, any typographical errors were corrected swiftly. After our initial interview, we sent in some details via e-mail, it would have been better to have sent a personalised acknowledgement rather than just an automated reply. Changing our wills was a distressing experience for us, owing to a personal tragedy, but the whole process was made as painless and uncomplicated as possible, which was a great relief.

Paying for professional advice is always worthwhile. Instructing Mullis and Peake LLP to assist me with gaining Deputyship for my disabled relative was well worth the money. I was confident everything was handled properly and this took the stress of the application away, especially given the extensive delays with the Court of Protection at present.

Esra is an exceptional solicitor — highly professional, approachable, and always easy to contact. Throughout my divorce proceedings, she was incredibly understanding and compassionate. I had very little knowledge of the divorce process, and Esra guided me through each stage with clarity and patience. Esra is a true asset to Mullis & Peake, and I would not hesitate to recommend her for any divorce or family law matters. Thank you to Esra and the team at Mullis & Peake. I can now look forward to the next chapter of my life knowing everything has been finalised.

Thank you for your excellent support with my transfer of equity

Vernon was extremelly helpful with my transfer of equity process. He was approachable, very patient and professional throughout the whole process, and making things very easy to understand. Everything was handled efficiently and I felt reassured knowing that he was managing the matter carefully from start to finish. I highly recommend him to anyone needing support with a similar legal matter.

I found Vernon to be extremely responsive throughout the conveyancing process. His clear communication helped ease what was, at times a stressful process that wasn't easy to understand. Vernon kindly acommdated a short-notice appointment at his office, as I was travelling some distance, which was very much appreciated. Thank you, Vernon, excellent customer care really does make all the difference.

We recently used Mullis & Peake to review a contract for us. We had a meeting with James Bowles, sent him all the relevant information and he carried out an excellent review. Kept to the timeline he gave, was very thorough and extremely helpful. We would highly recommend him and the company as a whole. Thank you!
