- Reporting an Attorney or Deputy
If you find yourself needing to report an Attorney or Deputy, or are facing legal action in this position yourself, our expert team are here to help you achieve the right resolution.
An Attorney or Deputy’s job is to act in the best interests of someone who no longer has the capacity to make their own decisions. However, if you believe the choices made are not acting in someone’s best interests, they are failing to fulfil their duties properly, or the Joint Attorneys in place are unable to work together, we are here for you.
Our specialist Court of Protection solicitors in Essex work with you to understand your concerns, gather necessary evidence, and raise a report for the Office of the Public Guardian to investigate further. Whatever it takes, we are by your side to identify and prevent any abuse of power carried out by an Attorney or Deputy.
Alternatively if you’re an Attorney or Deputy facing a claim yourself, our experts at Giles Wilson also understand the intricacies of these disputes. We offer pragmatic, constructive advice to work through these matters with unwavering attention to detail, so that your position is protected against any unwarranted report.
Whether you want to bring safeguarding issues to the attention of legal authorities, or need guidance to defend against claims like abuse of power, we have decades of experience in the Court of Protection and can manage your legal proceedings from start to finish.
Through a thorough understanding of your specific situation, careful analysis of relevant information, and our first-hand experience, we possess the knowledge and expertise necessary to lead you towards a just, positive resolution.
Avoid the headache of handling Attorney or Deputy reports yourself. Trust our experienced, compassionate team to find the right path forward for you.
