Success for the Mental Health Team

Posted: 12 June 2018

Well done to the Mental Health Department for the excellent results last week.

We represented at 4 Tribunal Hearings last week. As a result, 2 clients were discharged from detention under s.2 MHA, 1 was discharged from their CTO and for 1 client a recommendation for transfer to a rehabilitation unit to facilitate their future discharge was made!

Please contact us on 01268 792 994 if you or someone you know is detained under the Mental Health Act and requires legal representation.
