Powers of Attorney

By a Lasting Power of Attorney you can appoint one or more persons to act for you (and in your name) in the event of you losing the ability to deal with your property and money affairs.

You can also appoint an Attorney to make decisions for you in relation to your Personal Welfare, health care, medical treatment, residential arrangements etc. Your Attorney must be someone who you trust absolutely and this can be your spouse or other relatives.

This is an "Insurance Policy" worth having and will be stored in our safe with your Will. If you lose your mental capacity and do not have a Lasting Power of Attorney your family may have to apply to the Court of Protection for the appointment of a Deputy to deal with your affairs – this can be a time consuming and costly procedure.
