What happens when a person is no longer capable of handling or managing their own affairs? Most commonly this will apply to older people who by reason of illness, disability or mental impairment can no longer deal with even simple matters like handling a bank or building society or transacting a house sale.
The Property and Financial Affairs LPA allows you to choose a person you trust to make decisions about how to spend your money and the way your property and affairs are managed. Once registered, and unless you have put a restriction on it, this type of LPA can be used by your attorney(s) straight away.
The Health and Welfare LPA allows you to choose someone to make decisions on your behalf relating to your personal healthcare and welfare including decisions to give or refuse consent for treatment on your behalf and deciding where you live. These decisions can only be taken on your behalf when the LPA has been registered and you lack the capacity to make the necessary decision for yourself.
Whenever an attorney makes a decision under an LPA, by law they must act in the best interests of the donor who has given them the power.
If you want to make plans for the future, creating an LPA will allow you to choose one or more people to act as decision-makers. An LPA can be made by anyone aged 18 or over but can only be used once it has been registered with the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG)
Steele Rose can prepare both LPAs for only £160 + VAT each and you may register the document(s) when required, or they can also prepare the registration forms if you wish for a total fee of only £330 + VAT.
