Restriction of capacity is a last resort whereby a court may decide to restrict certain legal actions of persons who are no longer able to make decisions about certain matters due to their serious health condition. The court always takes into account the extent and degree of incapacity to manage one’s own affairs. No one can be deprived of capacity completely.
I pride myself on clear and transparent communication. This way, the client always knows the status of the case, where the case is heading and what the next legal steps will be. The client’s expectations are much better.
According to the law, a contract is supposed to reflect the will of the contracting parties. We are here to make it simple, easy to understand, and to ensure that everything goes smoothly without unnecessary hassles.
Limitation of capacity is a very crucial step that the courts take when:
Typical illnesses in which the courts approach some degree of limitation of capacity are, for example, schizophrenia or dementia. Far from every indication of mental illness needs to be addressed by limiting capacity. Sometimes, on the other hand, you could irritate your loved one and make the situation worse and more complicated.
Even if you choose this solution, you should always consider which specific tasks the person can and cannot do.

Over the years, we have helped people in a wide variety of situations.
We are aware that the restriction of legal capacity is a fundamental interference with a person’s rights and can only be used in very exceptional cases. The reason should never be the needs and requirements of the immediate family, but only the threat to the person whose capacity is to be restricted.
As we have already mentioned above, there are also more modest means of helping sick people without necessarily limiting their legal capacity.
When assessing the situation, we always try to suggest a solution that is as mild as possible and does not lead to an escalation of problems in the family, for example in the form of conflicts and quarrels.
I lease and sublease properties professionally and have been working with Dostupný advokát regularly long term. I especially appreciate their reliability. I also admire the flexibility and professionalism of their online legal service. But what I value most is that they are always on top of the latest news. With Dostupný advokát I can feel confident because I know that my business is always covered.
I felt very uncomfortable meeting an attorney in person. But Dostupný advokát managed to solve everything for me online. I bought a consultation because my employer had sent me for a long term business trip to an exotic country with no explanation, and I wanted to be sure what my rights in this situation were. The Skype consultation was very pleasant and the service was fast. I can fully recommend them.
