Disability

Duncan.Legal offers a personalised and caring service with a special focus on assisting families with disability. The practice members are parents of children with autism and intellectual disability which enables us to share our life experiences with you.

Our combination of specialised legal knowledge, experience and professional skills in Disability Estate Planning is rare to find. We regularly assist families with vulnerable persons in the mix or clients who may be vulnerable themselves.

At Duncan.Legal we know how to build flexible legal documents that protect your vulnerable family members. We can individualise your documents to meet your specific needs. As we are able to provide a deep understanding and compassion to the services we provide, clients are able to receive the peace of mind they deserve.
