Robin Tubbs

Most of my clients have sustained catastrophic brain injuries as a result of serious accidents or medical negligence at birth.

My experience includes:

• Dealing with the ongoing management of complex deputyships, including cross-jurisdictional considerations
• Making applications to the Court of Protection for the appointment of professional Deputies
• Advising on and preparing Statutory Will applications to the Court of Protection
• Assisting with the preparation of expert witness statements on Court of Protection costs in medical negligence and serious injury cases
• Advising non-solicitors on Court of Protection applications and their duties as a lay deputy or trustee

I have significant practical experience when it comes to a Deputy's necessary involvement in high value property adaptation projects, which allow clients (and their families) to live as independently as possible. I am also experienced at managing the investment process when clients' damages need to be placed with a reputable investment manager so the award can last for life.

I enjoy working closely with clients, their families, litigation lawyers, care teams and other professionals involved in improving a client's overall situation following the tragedy they have often experienced at some point in their lives.

I served for 14 years in the British Army before leaving to study law at the University of London where I graduated with a First Class degree. I completed my LPC at BPP in London with commendation. Prior to joining Fieldfisher, I worked at one of the country's leading Court of Protection practices where I managed a large, complex deputyship caseload.

I am a member of the Court of Protection Practitioners' Association (CoPPA). I am also a full member of the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment (MCSI).
