We make Court of Protection applications to manage vulnerable adult concerns.
This might be – looking after their finances, challenging abuse allegations, misuse of a vulnerable adults property, concerns over health and welfare decisions, where a vulnerable adult should live, the appointed deputy or attorney is not suitable and should be removed, the lasting power of attorney is not being used properly, there are concerns about the vulnerable adult’s mental capacity.
