Court of Protection
Legal Services

If you are appointed as a Court of Protection Deputy for property and financial affairs you will be responsible for managing someone’s finances. This means that you must keep their finances under regular review, even if there are arrangements or relationships which were put in place before your appointment. You cannot simply do nothing. Inherited arrangements or relationships may no longer be in the best interests of the individual now, and as Deputy you may need to make changes to bring those arrangements up to date.
