At Harold G Walker Solicitors, our Private Client Care Team provides practical, compassionate support to individuals and families navigating complex personal, financial and legal challenges. Whether support is needed due to age, illness, vulnerability, loss of capacity or changing life circumstances, we are here to protect our clients’ interests and help make difficult decisions clearer and more manageable.
Court of Protection and Deputyship Advice in Dorset
We advise on a wide range of private client matters, including Court of Protection applications, deputyship and ongoing deputy responsibilities, guidance for attorneys acting under Powers of Attorney, trust and estate administration, and broader private client advice. Our role goes beyond technical legal work. We focus on the day-to-day realities our clients face, ensuring affairs are managed sensitively, efficiently and with careful forward planning.
We work closely with families, care providers, healthcare professionals, local authorities and other advisers to deliver coordinated, joined-up support that reflects each individual’s needs, values and wishes. We understand that situations can change quickly, and that urgent or unexpected issues do not always arise during office hours. That is why our team can assist in urgent and emergency situations, including during evenings and weekends, providing reassurance and timely guidance when it is most needed.
The Private Client Care service is delivered by an experienced and dedicated team across all our offices. At our Wimborne office, Nicola Lowe and Rebekah Taylor provide local insight and continuity of care, while contributing to the firm-wide, client-focused approach that underpins our private client services.
A Compassionate and Proactive Approach to Client Care
What sets our team apart is our commitment to being proactive, responsive and empathetic. Many clients come to us at times of stress, uncertainty or crisis. We prioritise clear communication, thoughtful coordination and careful planning, taking the time to explain options and next steps so clients and their families feel informed, supported and reassured throughout the process.
By working collaboratively across the firm and drawing on a broad range of expertise, we deliver a comprehensive and tailored Private Client Care service. Our aim is not simply to resolve legal issues, but to provide peace of mind, practical support and trusted guidance at every stage.
For us, private client work is about more than legal processes. It is about building trust, safeguarding dignity and supporting people through some of life’s most important and challenging moments with confidence and care.
