OUR LEGAL SERVICES

We provide specialist advice and representation in mental health law, supporting individuals who are subject to the Mental Health Act, as well as their families and carers. We understand that involvement with mental health services can be distressing and confusing, and we focus on giving clear practical advice so our clients understand their position and feel supported throughout.

Our work includes representation before Mental Health Tribunals and engagement with hospitals and other professionals to safeguard our clients' rights and interests. We take a calm, client-centered approach, combining legal expertise with an understanding of the wider personal and clinical context of each case.
