Lasting Power of Attorney

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) legally entitles someone, who you appoint, to make decisions for you should you become incapable for any reason. This gives you, your family and loved ones the peace of mind that all matters will be dealt with in your best interests, by someone who you trust, should anything unfortunate happen to you.

Many of us may think that we're either "too young" or that "nothing is going to happen to me" or that "I will address this at a later stage". However, we are all know someone who has been subjected to a critical illness, serious accident or a rapid deterioration in health. Should this happen and you're unable to manage your own affairs it will be too late to appoint a loved one and your affairs will be dealt with by a court. Control over your affairs would only pass to the person that you have nominated as your attorney at such a time when you are medically certified as losing mental and/or physical capacity.

It is worth taking the time to discuss what options are available to you, in order to peace of mind and to have the reassurance that your affairs are well looked after should anything happen to you.
