SOCIAL WORKERS

[Bob Dobbs]

Give them something to do. That's what they are there for. Next time you have problems particularly with authorities put them on to it.

If you believe your Mum isn't sound in her mind, then this would need to be confirmed by a Psychiatrist (referred from her GP).......Otherwise, the Law considers her to be sane & she can change her Will as she chooses (even if she's being pressurised by a con-man or SS).

The Mental Capacity Act is designed to support mentally infirm people, but it's been my experience that Social Services are working it to their advantage.

If you can, get a solicitor quick......CAB are good, but ineffectual because you're still on your own.....

S/W will probably keep calling until they think your mum is no longer 'at risk'
Ask to speak to your mums supporting S/W if she has one.
As for changing her will, if you think she is no longer of sound mind ( and this may be a reason the S/W are visiting so much) a visit to a specialist DR would determine this, you could then apply for the control of your mums estate. Map

Hi everyone well the solicator has been it seems the deeds are in our names for the past 3 years though ss were involved at that time also so if & wen mum needs to go into a home is the house safe????? a question that many wonder im doing my best for my mum & my bro & sis do nothin not even visit her & yet we all get the same share in the house, so she has left the grandkids some money, this is not fair why do many families have selfish siblings aaarrrrhhhh my mum would be kind to us & i find dealing with her is better now as her'son is'nt in touch so there is no playing off on one another thanks for reading.
