The Court of Protection often handles cases for people who have dementia, brain injuries, strokes or serious mental health problems, which can add an additional layer of complexity and need for sensitivity. This is an area in which our Court of Protection lawyers excel, and we’re always willing to go above and beyond.

It’s important to work with a lawyer when dealing with the Court of Protection. Given the complexity of the legal framework surrounding mental capacity issues, a solicitor can help safeguard the rights of a protected person. This is particularly the case when a person has lost their mental capacity.
During a case, there may be a need to submit evidence or attend a court hearing. A solicitor can advise on the best course of action throughout the process, help to gather the relevant evidence and represent the best interests of the protected person in court. We also have excellent relationships with expert witnesses and other professionals who can provide independent evidence and expertise to support the case.
It’s especially important to seek representation if there is a dispute over the care or treatment of a protected person. The team at Switalskis can represent their interests and make sure decisions are made in the best interests of the person who lacks mental capacity.
