Lasting Power of Attorney
Nobody wants to think about what will happen if they become unable to make decisions themselves through illness, an accident or old age.
Having a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) can make your affairs far easier to manage if you become unable to do so. It will remove the burden from your family and significantly reduce the stress and cost to your family at a very difficult time.
An LPA allows you to nominate the people you trust to manage the different aspects of your affairs in the event that you are no longer able to do so for yourself.
Why have an LPA in place?
- To remove the time and cost associated with a Deputyship application to the Court of Protection
- You can appoint family to make decisions regarding personal finances and health and welfare
