Law firms ranked by client reviews

Institutional abuse in care settings covers safeguarding failures and abuse by organisations responsible for adults or children in care, including care homes, hospitals and residential services in England. A solicitor in this area investigates claims of neglect, physical or psychological harm, exploitation or systemic mistreatment, and may pursue personal injury, professional negligence or abuse of authority actions. They gather evidence from regulators, employers, medical records and police, draft and service claims, and advise on settlements or litigation in the county or high court where appropriate.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Claims hinge on proving breach of care standards and causation, with complexities arising from multiple defendants, shared liability, evidential obligations, and regulatory findings. The solicitor handles disclosure, expert reports, witnesses, settlements, and potential court deadlines, while ensuring regulatory compliance and safeguarding outcomes for clients.

Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

From the very onset Emily made us feel at ease. She guided myself and my brother to a successful outcome of navigating what is a complex process with a human touch. This was important to us as we were going through some challenging times with sourcing care homes and navigating Social Services. Knowing Emily was taking care of things both effectively and efficiently was a great reassurance. Emily was quick to act with the Court of Protection, which enabled a lengthy process to be more timely. Thank you Emily

Suzanne Riozzi

Tagged solicitor Suzanne Riozzi

I needed to sell a close relative's property to meet care home fees. As I chose the auction option, Suzanne and her team had a very tight 4-5 week deadline to prepare the auction pack. Not only did they acheive this but somebody was always either available to answer my questions and/or return my calls promptly.. Payment of the proceeds was quick and straightforward, enabling me to be in the position to begin negotiations with Social Services. Based on my experience, I would unhesitatingly recommend Wooley Bees for any property related legal matters. Competent and friendly to deal with.

Ian Cranefield

Tagged solicitor Ian Cranefield

I first met Ian Cranefield in September 2017 to seek advice about taking up an abuse of an elderly relation case. He immediately put me at ease as explained things to me in terms i could understand. He has always responded in a swift manner to any enquiries i have made and has explained procedure at every step. If I was to find myself in need of a solicitor in the future I would make him my first port of call.

We contacted Boyes Turner earlier this year after we ran into a dispute with our local authority. This was about a social care matter and learning disability. The case was handled with professionalism and tact.

Amanda Steele

Tagged solicitor Amanda Steele

I don’t know where to start with this. Our nightmare ended on the 5th November 2025 but it has taken me this long to be able to rwrite this as I have not been dealing with the after effects of the whole thing. What I will categorically say is that Amanda (my man of steel) was the best and I believe there is no better. She knew me from day one and understood how I needed to be dealt with. A true professional in every aspect and although I was completely innocent I don’t believe anyone had my back like Amanda did. For that I am forever grateful. Thank you Amanda.

Helen has been my solicitor for 2 years. A very long time. She has always been the best. She has fought so hard for me against social services. She always put my point across in a professional way that I would not have been able to. She came to visit me in placement. She always worked around me at all hours. I have had countless appointments. She has listened to me ramble for hours. Thank you.
