Law firms ranked by client reviews
Care costs cover the assessment of need for social care, how care is funded, and the charges that may be levied for care in the community or in a care home. A solicitor helps with the financial assessment, negotiating local authority contributions, and understanding potential funding routes such as deferred payment or equity release, plus drafting and reviewing care agreements and contracts with providers. They also assist with appeals or disputes about charges, eligibility, and safeguarding concerns.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
A solicitor explains the local authority means-tested assessment, the eligibility rules, any charging bands, and the options for funding care, including deferred payment schemes and potential recovery of fees from estates. They review care contracts for terms that could affect funding or liability, and assist with disputes or appeals to the local authority on charging decisions, safeguarding reviews, or access to funded care.
