Lasting Powers Of Attorney

Protect Your Future By Planning Today

There may come a time due to accident, illness or age when you may no longer have the mental capacity to make decisions for yourself. Planning for this, if it happens is therefore important.

By making a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) for both health and finance you are ensuring those decisions are made by someone you trust.

These decisions could be about:

• The first deals with the donors (the person giving the authority) property and financial affairs – known as a Property & Financial LPA.
• The second deals with the donors decisions about their personal health and welfare – known as a Health & Welfare LPA.
• What happens to your business if you are a business owner
• Your health and welfare
• The type of medical treatment you receive
• What happens if you have to move into a care home

There are therefore two types of LPA:

• The first deals with the donors (the person giving the authority) property and financial affairs – known as a Property & Financial LPA.
• The second deals with the donors decisions about their personal health and welfare – known as a Health & Welfare LPA.
