Ruth is highly experienced in acting as a Deputy or Trustee as a result of catastrophic claims but equally, the team can act for those with age-related illnesses.
When acting for family members as a Deputy (known as a “lay Deputy”), we can provide as much or as little support as required. Quite often we are asked to prepare the application for Deputyship, but sometimes we are only asked to complete annual accounts each year.
We act for clients all over the country from Cornwall to Yorkshire and if appointed as a professional Deputy, will visit clients at their home address where they may feel more comfortable.
Our professional connections with Case Managers, care agencies, therapists, bankers, fund managers and accountants are far-reaching so that we can provide a holistic and supportive service.
The team has considerable experience of Deputyship and Personal Injury Trusts and Ruth has a national reputation for her work in the Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession:
“Ruth Meyer is known for being ‘phenomenally adaptable and astonishingly hard working. Her knowledge is also excellent’. Her specialisms lie in establishing and managing Personal Injury Trusts and in acting as deputy through the Court of Protection”
"There is always someone we can contact for support and they make us feel fully supported with whatever challenges we face," notes a client.
"They make sure we get the answers we need and always go the extra mile."
And in The Legal 500:
“Boyes Turner has “an extremely client-focused, efficient and well-organised team” under the leadership of Ruth Meyer who is “sensible, personable and supportive” and is a “leading light for Court of Protection work”
