Nilufer Ozdemir can advise on a range of issues surrounding care and residence arrangements, advising both protected parties and their family members. She is well-versed in community care work as well as matters brought to the Court of Protection. She is a fluent Turkish speaker.

A wonderful solicitor to work for - she is always on top of the case and very organised.

I have been most impressed by the sensitivity and awareness she has in dealing with vulnerable clients, even those who are non-verbal: she tries to understand their life and put them first.

Shaun Livingston

Shaun Livingston is often instructed by the Official Solicitor to handle complex welfare matters. He has notable experience in cases concerning individuals with learning disabilities and complex mental health needs.

Shaun is willing to push a case as much as possible to get right outcome: he is calm and can step back and look at the bigger picture.

Shaun is extremely intelligent and forensically minded. He sees the winning arguments others may miss.

I have been struck by Shaun's attention to detail: he identifies core issues in cases and points that assist in advancing a client's interests.
