The essential, plain English guide to Court of Protection law &
practice.
Court of Protection Made Clear: A User's Guide aims to help everyone
involved in Court of Protection proceedings. The book deliberately sets
out to bridge the gap between the people using the Court and the
professionals who advise them so that all involved can make fully
informed decisions about money and welfare at what can be a stressful
time.
Using plain English, it demystifies the law, language and procedure and
is enhanced by a raft of invaluable flowcharts, tables and model
documents that help put the guidance into practice. While accessible to
the non-lawyer the book also provides the professional legal adviser
with a quick, clear first point of reference.
It will therefore be an essential reference for all:
- care home managers and senior staff
- local authority staff working in elderly care services
- other professionals acting as deputies or advising on family affairs
- individuals who have become involved in Court of Protection
proceedings for whatever reason
- private client & family lawyers undertaking Court of Protection work
