How we made a difference
Clare Savory was excellent at dealing with us - she's very client focused, reassuring and understanding.
We felt that Clare really understood our personal circumstances and the potential ramifications. She made a particular effort to ensure that we were covered for all reasonable eventualities.
Clare’s understanding, professionalism and warmth made what could have been an unbearable task, bearable. Clare goes above and beyond to provide reassurance and care in a very beautiful way.
We consulted Clare Savory, a senior associate, seeking advice about our estate planning and particularly how to minimise inheritance tax.
Legal 500 2024
Clare produced an admirably clear report about our situation and the options open to us. She explained and justified her recommendations, with references where needed, in a way that gave us added confidence.
Legal 500 2024
Clare showed remarkable retentiveness of the background and of her communications with us. This meant that she was often able to provide very well-informed advice or comments without the delay that would have occurred if she had had to go through all our papers again.
Legal 500 2024
Clare made herself readily available and was happy to speak on the telephone at short notice when needed.

Clare Savory guided us in setting up a family trust for our children and grandchildren. It was the first time we had done this. She was immensely helpful and clear and didn’t mind how many questions we asked. The Trust is now set up. Along the way she provided some invaluable advice to one of our daughters who was buying a property while still being a part owner of another. She helped her subsequently in transferring her part-ownership to her sister. She was always very quick to respond, very thorough and very professional. I couldn’t recommend her more strongly.
Private client
Clare has recently worked with my organisation and has been helpful, professional and understanding throughout. As a new venture that took me out of my own area of expertise I was grateful and appreciative of Clare’s pragmatism and her ability to rapidly understand both the broad context of our venture and also the details needed to take it forward. Clare and her team have the qualities of being friendly and approachable whilst also being efficient and cost effective. I happily recommend Clare to you without reservation.
Private client
Clare has a delightful warm nature that encourages dialogue between lawyer and client. She has a sympathetic and friendly approach and we were assured that our wishes were understood.
