Lasting Powers of Attorney
Lasting Powers of Attorney, a legal document that empowers someone else to take actions or make
decisions on your behalf. You choose the person you want to help you, called an
“Attorney”, and decide what powers they should have.
If you become ill or lose capacity and don’t have a Power of Attorney (POA) then no one
can act on your behalf. Lasting Powers of Attorney will allow your family and loved ones to deal
with your personal and financial affairs, such as going to the bank or signing a legal
document.
It is not a practically difficult, time consuming or expensive process to prepare a POA.
Generally, couple of consultations with our solicitor would be enough.
