Court of Protection Handbook addresses in detail the practice and processes of the Court of Protection - across the whole range of its work - in terms that are aimed not only at lawyers but also to the increasing numbers of people who either by choice or otherwise are involved in proceedings before the Court of Protection without legal help.
The book begins with an overview of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the Court of Protection, before turning to a step-by-step guide through the processes of preparing and making an application, funding and representation issues, preparing for and appearing at hearings, evidence, costs, enforcement and appeals.
Court of Protection Handbook is comprehensive yet accessible. The third edition has been fully updated and includes coverage of the Liberty Protection Safeguards introduced by the Mental Capacity (Amendment) Act 2019.
