Lasting Power of Attorney

Supporting you to plan ahead with confidence

​

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to choose trusted people to make decisions on your behalf if you ever become unable to do so. We offer a supportive, straightforward service to help you put these important protections in place.

Our LPA service

We provide a complete, end‑to‑end service, including:

​

  • Clear advice on which LPA is right for you

  • Drafting the documents

  • Acting as certificate provider (where appropriate)

  • Guiding your attorneys on their responsibilities

  • Managing the signing process to ensure the LPA is valid

  • Registering the LPA with the Office of the Public Guardian

  • Providing clear information on how and when your LPA can be used once it is registered, so you and your attorneys feel confident about next steps.

 

​

An LPA is a legal document that lets you appoint one or more people (your “attorneys”) to make decisions for you.

What is an LPA?

It can cover decisions about your property and finances, your health and welfare, or both.  LPAs are used if you lose capacity in the future, or if you want help managing your affairs sooner

Types of LPA

Property & Financial Affairs LPA

​

Covers decisions such as:

  • Managing bank accounts

  • Paying bills

  • Selling property

  • Handling investments

​

Health & Welfare LPA

​

Covers decisions such as:

  • Medical treatment

  • Care arrangements

  • Where you live

  • Life‑sustaining treatment decisions

If you’d like to discuss putting an LPA in place, we’d be happy to help.
