Consent Forms

Sage works with and on behalf of a person with their consent. Sage uses a Consent Form signed by our client, or their representative, which gives Sage permission to act on their behalf.

Sage uses two types of Consent Forms depending on the specific circumstances of our client:

A person can give their consent to Sage by signing the Client Consent Form.
In circumstances where a person is unable to give consent for Sage to act on their behalf, Sage may work on a Non-Instructed Advocacy basis where this is necessary.
