Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers challenges to compulsory detention and treatment under the Mental Health Act 1983. A solicitor helps people who have been detained or threatened with detention in a hospital or care setting, or who face Community Treatment Orders, to understand their rights, gather medical and other evidence, and pursue discharge, review, or appeals. They may draft representations to the Mental Health Tribunal, apply for bail or discharge, and advise on rights of appeal and on any forced treatment decisions.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the statutory framework around detention, including section 2 or 3 detentions, renewal and discharge, and the safeguards for consent to treatment and lasting orders. They arrange medical reports, liaise with doctors and the tribunal, prepare case documents, and navigate potential appeals or judicial review if a detention is challenged or varied.

Clare James

Tagged solicitor Clare James

Clare has been a very understanding solicitor. She listened and was able to relay my words and thoughts to the courts. She has been very supportive and I felt in safe hands. My case was not typical and was based on mental health. Clare absolutely understood this and was able to adapt accordingly rather than run her own narrative. I did not get to choose Clare, as she was a duty solicitor. But I feel very lucky and very blessed to have had her represent me.
