Mental health law is an extremely specialised and complex area that requires both a rapid response and accurate advice to avoid mistakes. Whether patients are detained in High Secure Hospitals or are informal or living in the community, our mental health lawyers have an unrivalled track record in giving you clear guidance on sensitive legal issues.
Capsticks specialises in advising NHS providers and commissioners as well as public, private and charitable sector clients on all issues involving incapacitated and vulnerable adults and children.
We are considered the national ‘go-to’ firm for mental health advice by many of our clients. We have one of the largest teams in the country who are experts, advising daily, on the full range of mental health issues. We have some of the most pre-eminent practitioners in the country leading this dedicated team, and also provide a 24/7 emergency advice line on complex medical, ethical and legal issues.
By attending decision-making meetings and reviewing the supporting documentation and policies, we can help to make your decisions final and keep you out of the courts and the newspapers. If required we can act as advocates in Mental Health Review Tribunals and we have an excellent reputation for defending our clients at judicial review. Naturally, we prefer to work proactively and our specialist mental health lawyers can help formulate policies and procedures and provide internal training to help prevent this happening in the first place.
