How can we help?

Mental Health Law is highly specialised and Berris Law is widely respected mental health law firm, helping patients detained under the Mental Health Act seeking discharge from hospital.

Berris Law Mental Health Legal Team consists of specialist Law Society Accredited Advocates.

Berris Law is based in Hammersmith and Ealing in London, acting for clients both locally and further afield, including in high secure hospitals.

Many of the cases our Mental Health Lawyers help with begin with a challenge against detention under the Mental Health Act, but we also seek to address many other legal issues which detained people may encounter like Community Treatment Orders (CTO) and Guardianship.

We pride ourselves in giving a high level of client care combined with a firm and professional approach when representing our clients’ legal needs.

What Berris Law solicitors will do

We can advise on and represent you in all aspects of mental health. Here is a snapshot of our work:

Funding your case

If you instruct us on a challenge of your detention to a mental health panel or tribunal, you will be entitled to free representation.

In most other situations, we can act for you under a form of legal aid funding, which means that the cost of your case is wholly or partly paid for from public funds. This is only available to people with limited means and with the approval of the Legal Aid Agency. We can help you work out whether you are eligible for legal aid and, if you are, we’ll guide you through the application process.

Where Legal Aid is not available or if you wish to receive our services on a private basis, we can quote you competitive rates for our work. Click here to find out more.

Our approach to fees is simple, we’ll do everything we possibly can to ensure you receive best value legal advice.

That means helping you secure Legal Aid, if it’s available for you. It means checking out whether you have any legal expenses insurance which could fund your case. It also means agreeing the best arrangement for you, if you’re going to be paying our fees directly.

We recognise that clients usually come to us when there are problems to resolve. We work hard not to add to those problems. We’ll be clear about how much we think it will cost for us to conclude your case and we’ll discuss with you the ways of managing that cost.

In some circumstances, you may wish to consider a judicial review if you believe a decision has been made unlawfully or unfairly. We can advise you on whether this is the right course of action and what funding options may be available.

You could ask us to work on just one part of your case, for a limited time. Or you could ask us to be by your side for the duration, for a fixed fee. In some cases we offer conditional fee agreements where the amount you pay depends on the outcome of your case.

We work to budgets, to fixed fees and to bespoke arrangements because we know that every client has different circumstances. When you instruct us, you’ll discover that value for money is as important to us as it is to you. You’ll find that our fees are competitive. You’ll also discover that our service delivers on our promises.
