AnnotationThe Mental Capacity Act 2005 has changed the role and work of the Court of Protection. The Court's jurisdiction now extends not only to financial and property matters, but also to health and welfare issues and disputes relating to lasting powers of attorney. This book is for professionals working with incapacitated adults, and covers all relevant topics from the perspective of the Court of Protection user faced with making an urgent application. For each topic, there is a law and practice section, procedural guide, precedents and draft orders. These topics are covered in three parts: general principles; personal welfare and deprivation of liberty; and property and affairs. (RH).
