Individuals coping with mental health challenges and their families face complex, daily struggles across many areas of life. These challenges often include legal issues—such as legal capacity, guardianship, and power of attorney; navigating the National Insurance Institute and rehabilitation services; employment and family law; and in some cases, criminal law.
Seeking legal assistance can be difficult for many. It is often hard to find a lawyer with the right sensitivity and experience; sometimes specialized training that combines both therapeutic and legal understanding is required. Such support demands not only professional expertise but also empathy—recognizing the whole person and addressing both their legal and therapeutic needs together.
Marva operates with the belief that law is not just a system of rules but a tool for support, rehabilitation, and healing. We apply the principles of therapeutic jurisprudence, viewing legal encounters as opportunities to strengthen people coping with mental health challenges, as well as individuals experiencing trauma from wars and acts of terrorism by strengthening their sense of control, competence, and trust in both the legal system and the society around them. Precise legal guidance, in collaboration with mental health professionals, can significantly improve the quality of life for those coping with these challenges and their families, enhance their support networks, and accompany them throughout the rehabilitation process.
