RS Assessments

There are many situations where you or a loved one may need a capacity assessment when making a complex, appointing a Lasting Power of Attorney, selling a property, or updating a Will. 

If there are concerns about someone’s cognition, professionals may also request an assessment. We offer face-to-face assessments, formally recorded to support decision-making and identify if help is needed. Capacity is both time- and decision-specific, so multiple assessments may be required for different decisions.

If someone has lost capacity, an application may be required to the Court of Protection to help make a decision on behalf of someone. 

As part of the court processes, the Court of Protection require a CoP 3 form to be completed by a relevant professional to confirm the status of the persons capacity for the court. This is often requested by a solicitor if they are helping you with this application. We are able to offer the completion of CoP 3 forms, including in situations such as applications for deputyship with the Court of Protection.
