Medical treatment disputes cover contentious decisions about medical care for adults under mental health services, particularly where capacity, consent, or the use of treatment under mental health powers is in dispute. A solicitor in this area helps clients by reviewing treatment decisions, gathering evidence, and advising on rights to challenge or influence care under the Mental Health Act and the Mental Capacity Act, including applications to the Court of Protection. They may liaise with NHS Trusts, clinicians, and social services to resolve disagreements about appropriate treatment.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the procedures and interactions that arise from capacity assessments, best interests decisions, and the interplay between the Mental Health Act and the Mental Capacity Act, including preparation for Court of Protection applications, gathering medical and social evidence, and coordinating with medical professionals, carers and family to protect the client's interests.

Immediately I felt at ease within the care of Hayley, who is incredibly knowledgeable within her field. She commits herself to fairness, reason and has always kept me within the realms of understanding. She has relieved me from the mental pressures of my situation, by her continuous, honest reassurance and always possesing a productive plan of action. I house sincere gratitude for the work that Hayley has undertaken on my behalf. I am confident in expressing that should I ever require assinstance from Hayley again, I will be in safe and productive hands. Thank you so much again!
