Biography
Hello, I’m Louisa Revelo, a Legal Executive in the Court of Protection team. I specialise in supporting individuals who lack the mental capacity to make decisions about their health, welfare, or finances. My role involves working closely with families, carers, and professionals to ensure that vulnerable individuals are protected and their best interests are upheld.
I assist with applications to the Court of Protection, including deputyship orders, statutory wills, and complex financial matters. I also help clients navigate the responsibilities of acting as a deputy.
I understand that these situations can be emotionally challenging and legally complex. My aim is to provide clear, compassionate guidance every step of the way, ensuring you feel supported and confident in the decisions being made.
Key highlights
- Securing a deputyship order for a client to sell property
- Advising on a statutory will application
- Supporting a family through purchase of a property and large adaptation project
- Managing ongoing deputyship for high-value estates.

Outside of the office, I enjoy reading, spending time with friends and family, and following motorsport. I also ride a motorbike and am currently learning Spanish—¡poco a poco!
