Law firms ranked by client reviews
This work area covers the funded support and care arrangements for adults with long-term needs, including care home placement, home care, and support in the community. A solicitor in England typically advises on care needs assessments, eligibility for local authority funding, and the complex rules around capital, income, and charging by local authorities under the Care Act 2014. They draft and check carer and provider agreements, liaise with local authorities and nursing providers, and help challenge unfair or incorrect assessments and charges when a client’s needs are not properly recognised.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor handles the statutory criteria for care needs, the financial assessment, deprivation of capital issues, and the interaction with NHS Continuing Healthcare where applicable. They review or draft care agreements, appeal local authority decisions, and coordinate with social workers and care providers to secure appropriate placements and funding streams.
