About The Role

OVP Solicitor

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a junior lawyer to join our private client team, more particularly working as part of our specialist Older and Vulnerable Persons (OVP) team. The OVP is a team of lawyers with the expertise and understanding to support and advise older and vulnerable individuals, their families and carers on a range of legal issues.

About the role

The role will involve ongoing oversight and management of a number of professional Deputy and Attorney appointments for the firm. This will involve working with individuals with a range of vulnerabilities, including brain injuries, dementia, learning disabilities and mental health issues.

Day-to-day responsibilities and tasks include:

Meetings with vulnerable clients
Liaising with carers, care homes, estate agents and other professionals
Day-to-day management of financial affairs for vulnerable clients, including:

The successful candidate should be comfortable with client interactions and interviews. The successful candidate will be given the skills and training in time to be able to host client meetings, providing advice on a breadth of OVP services, such as care funding and attorney advice.

Welfare benefits
The Care Act 2014
The Mental Capacity Act 2005
Care and Support Statutory Guidance
