Specialist Services for the Elderly

we can help with any relationship or family problems

chtr solicitors are particularly  well known for the legal services they provide to the elderly, the infirm  and their relatives, in the Hull and East Yorkshire area. Our lawyers frequently give talks to organisations  and conduct advice surgeries about legal issues  which can arise with age or infirmity.   We are, in particular. often asked for advice  in connection with issues that arise when residential care is being considered.
Another area of particular  interest to many is  that of the advisability of  having a  Lasting Powers of Attorney  prepared. These documents can be extremely  helpful , particularly to assist relatives carry out certain financial and other actions on behalf of a relative who has difficulty in managing their own affairs as they would wish to, due to age or infirmity. Where it is not possible to have a Lasting Power of Attorney prepared due to mental incapacity, we advise and assist with regard to any appropriate application that may need to be made to the Court of Protection.’

The firm’s Principal Solicitor is a Full Member of Solicitors For the Elderly.

This aspect of legal practice is particularly sensitive and one which can affect us all. In an ideal world, our services would be redundant, however, the reality is that this is one of the busiest and most complex fields of the law. And it is one where caring for the client and the need for sympathetic guidance is paramount.
