Testimonials

Yes, I am happy with the report. It seems very thorough and professional. Please pass my thanks to Simone. She was very efficient and also very compassionate. Best regards and thanks for the great service: very professional, diligent, punctual as well as compassionate.

I think the course was excellent and as always Tim was brilliant. He is obviously one of the leading lights in the world of assessing capacity.

The COP Deputy Court Order has now been issued and we would like to express our thanks to you for your prompt and competent service in carrying out the capacity assessment. It has been a pleasure to do business with TSF consultants. Please pass our thanks and best wishes to your assessor for his friendly and competent service.

This is just to thank you so very much for coming and making my Father feel so comfortable and being so patient. I hope it reassures potential clients that your service provides a friendly, relaxed and yet professional approach to what otherwise could be perceived as a somewhat complex and daunting process.

I have used Tim to provide a medical assessment for capacity and to act as a certificate provider on a lasting power of attorney. The matter was time sensitive and Tim provided an efficient and professional service and was sensitive to the circumstances of the client and his family.

TSF were the answer to a prayer! An elderly relative with early stage dementia was advised by the family solicitor to get an assessment in advance of completing some legal papers. We found it very hard to locate someone with the necessary skills and were feeling despondent and frustrated. TSF provided an incredibly professional and fast service. Every stage of the assessment process was expertly explained and the actual assessment was sensitively handled. We can't recommend them highly enough.
