End of life care law covers decision making around the final stages of a person’s life, including capacity, withdrawal or withholding of treatment, and ensuring patients’ preferences are respected within the NHS and independent care settings. A solicitor helps draft or review advance decisions, appoint lasting power of attorney, and advise on who may speak for a patient when capacity is impaired. They also navigate safeguarding, consent, and human rights considerations in relation to care plans and hospital or hospice arrangements.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Solicitors handle the practical and legal complexities of capacity assessments, advance decisions, and power of attorney, ensuring treatments align with patient wishes and legal safeguards. They work with medical teams, family carers, and care providers to secure appropriate safeguarding protections, assess potential disputes, and prepare or challenge documentation in the context of hospital, palliative, or hospice care.

Tagged solicitor James Urquhart-Burton

I worked with James over a number of months and found him to be knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. Having found ourselves in the situation we did, he helped navigate the process with me, provide guidance and assistance as well as hands on execution when it was required. I'd have no hesitation in recommending.
