Our Paid Relevant Persons Representatives (RPR) are qualified advocates who have specialist knowledge of the Mental Capacity Act and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards legislation.
The role of the Paid Relevant Persons Representative is to:
- Maintain contact with the relevant person.
- Represent and support the relevant person in all matters relating to the deprivation of liberty safeguards.
- Trigger a review.
- If necessary, challenge the authorisation through local means, where possible. Or ultimately, refer the case to the Court of Protection.
