Later Life Care Funding

The number of families facing the crisis of care funding has grown year by year. The success of Thatcher & Hallam has been built on responding to change to guarantee its commitment to meeting all of the legal needs of their clients and the community. Consistent with this aim, Thatcher & Hallam have set up a specialist later life care funding team.

The type and funding of care is not just a concern for the elderly. The later life care team has seen the wealth of families built up over generations disappear in the payment of care home fees, seriously reducing or even destroying the likelihood of any inheritance.

Thatcher & Hallam are one of the very few law firms to create a team dedicated to later life care funding.  They work in conjunction with other professionals, to provide specialist advice on funding, and in particular what the financial duties of both the local authority social services department and the local NHS trust are.
