DEPUTYSHIPS
Managing complex estates
Supporting the NHS & Local authorities with deputyship cases
Some deputyship cases involve multiple properties, historic debts, investments or family disputes. These estates need careful, specialist management to protect the person and the professionals acting for them.
ILBP works alongside deputies, local authorities and solicitors to bring order, transparency and structure to complex financial situations, with clear records for the Court of Protection and involved families.
