This area covers adult community care law arising from the Care Act 2014 and related welfare provisions, including how local authorities assess need for support, arrange services, and safeguard adults who may be at risk. A solicitor in this field advises on eligibility for social care, eligibility determinations, deprivation of liberty safeguards, eligibility for funding, and appeals against local authority decisions. They also draft care plans, review continuing NHS and social care funding, and handle disputes with councils or providers that affect an adult’s care and support.
The safeguards around mental capacity, best interests, and timely decisions are central. A solicitor explains relevant rights, time limits for applications or appeals, and how consent, safeguarding investigations, or deprivation of liberty safeguards may impact an individual’s care. They work to secure appropriate, lawful support and to challenge improper delays or refusals that could affect an adult’s wellbeing and safety.
