Making sure your wishes are respected if you need help in the future.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you need help managing your affairs. Putting an LPA in place can provide peace of mind that someone you have chosen will be able to support you if your circumstances change.

There are two types of LPA:

• Property and Financial Affairs – covering matters such as bank accounts, bills, property and other financial affairs, subject to the terms of the LPA.
• Health and Welfare – covering decisions about matters such as medical treatment, care arrangements and daily living, but only when you lack the capacity to make the relevant decisions yourself.

We can explain the differences between the two types of LPA, discuss who may be suitable to act as your attorney and prepare the documents to reflect your wishes. We will guide you through the registration process and explain the responsibilities involved.

Professional attorneys

Sometimes, appointing a professional attorney is the right choice, particularly where family members are unavailable, financial affairs are complex or you would prefer an independent professional to manage your affairs.

Where appointed, we can act as professional attorneys under an LPA, providing ongoing assistance with property and financial affairs and carrying out our responsibilities in accordance with the LPA and the relevant legal duties.

Planning ahead can make a significant difference to you and your family. We are here to help you put the right arrangements in place while you have the capacity to do so.
