  • Preparing and reviewing Lasting Powers of Attorney and advising on their use and registration.
  • Liaising with healthcare professionals, social services, and other stakeholders to gather evidence and ensure the client’s best interests are met.
  • Providing training and updates to clients and colleagues on developments in Court of Protection law and practice.
  • Maintaining accurate records and complying with all regulatory and professional standards, including those set by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
