- Protecting The Vulnerable
If you believe a vulnerable friend or relative is at risk of exploitation, our team can act on any suspicion, providing specialist service and expert advice to help protect the people closest to you.
At Giles Wilson, we are specialists at handling mental capacity cases, particularly ones where the client is vulnerable and at risk of exploitation. From advice on eligibility for care home fees and final years planning, to approaching the court of protection to obtain statutory wills and Powers of Attorney, we can provide advice and representation in whatever way is needed.
Led by Melinda Giles, who has a wealth of experience acting on behalf of vulnerable people in her role as a Court of Protection Panel Deputy, our team can help to guarantee the security of your loved one, keeping you in the loop every step of the way.
Featured Insights
With Powers of Attorney you are giving power to someone to make decisions about everything about you if you don’t want to or can’t make those decisions yourself.
Anyone of the above is able to help advise in the first instance; pick up the phone and call 01702 477106 if you need to speak to a family lawyer.
