Lasting Power Of Attorney

What if you are unable to make decisions for yourself due to illness or an accident?

Although it is difficult to imagine being unable to make your own decisions, it is important to plan early so that trusted help is immediately available if you need it.

Get started

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) gives you the comfort that you have appointed a trusted person(s) or firm as attorney to act on your behalf when you no longer can or feel able to.

Property and Financial Affairs LPA

Deals with the management of your assets, collection of income and the payment of bills such as utilities, mortgages, insurance and care fees etc.

Health and Welfare LPA

Deals with personal decisions such as where you live and what medication or treatment you receive, if any.
