Band 3

Katie Webber is well versed in a variety of health and welfare proceedings for individuals lacking capacity, and their families, often receiving instructions from the Official Solicitor. Her expertise covers deprivation of liberty challenges and best interest matters as well as capacity issues surrounding residence, care and consent to sexual relations.

Katie is very professional but also shows sensitivity and empathy when dealing with clients. She is an excellent advocate for individuals and I would definitely recommend her.

Katie has good rapport with clients and is good at spotting detail.

She is always communicative, forthcoming and responsive.

Katie has an exceptional legal mind.

Katie is an outstanding COP practitioner and I have been really impressed with her attention to detail.
