When may I have to deal with the Court of Protection?
Generally, if a family member, loved one or close friend hasn’t appointed any attorneys under an LPA, and they lose the mental capacity to make their own decisions, you or a solicitor can apply to the court to be appointed as deputy.
You may also contact the court of protection over complex issues such as statutory wills, infant settlement trusts, and the resolution of any disputes that come up in the area of protection.
Our specialist solicitors are on hand to help you with any queries you may have, including making applications to the court on your behalf.
