Why Do You Need A Lasting Power of Attorney in Place

A lasting power of attorney (LPA) is a legal document that lets you appoint one or more people to make decisions on your behalf, should you lack mental capacity to make your own decisions in the future

There are 2 Types of Lasting Powers of Attorney, One deals with your finances and one deals with your health

LPA FOR HEALTH & WELFARE AFFAIRS
LPA FOR FINANCIAL & PROPERTY AFFAIRS

Make Your Lasting Power of Attorney Before It's Too Late

Someone must act on your behalf to carry out your personal and financial affairs if you lose capacity as a result of an accident or disease such as a stroke or dementia. Your bank accounts will be stopped if you lose legal capacity to make decisions for yourself. Bills cannot be paid, and pensions or benefits cannot be accessed, causing a great deal of distress for friends and family.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows you to choose someone to manage your affairs if you are unable to do it yourself.

There are two forms of LPA: one that allows you to pick who can make financial decisions for you (LPA Property & Finance) and another that allows you to choose who can make personal, medical, or care decisions for you (LPA Personal, Medical, and Care) (LPA Health & Welfare).

Obtaining a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) when a person has lost mental capacity can be challenging, if not impossible. If this is the case, more expensive choices should be considered. A Deputyship Order, as opposed to an LPA, is one of these possibilities. It is more expensive and has more restrictions. We always advise establishing a Lasting Power of Attorney as soon as possible to ensure that your affairs are handled by the person you choose rather than the courts. It also means you won’t have to pay a lot of money in legal fees.

10 Features and Benefits of Having a Lasting Power of Attorney in Place

  1. Decision-Making Control:  With a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA), you retain the power to appoint someone you trust to make crucial decisions on your behalf when you are unable to do so, ensuring your preferences and values are respected.
  2.  Avoiding Court Appointments : By setting up an LPA, you prevent the need for court-appointed guardianships or deputies, saving time and expenses while ensuring your chosen representative acts on your behalf.
  3. Personalised Instructions : An LPA allows you to provide specific instructions to your chosen attorney regarding your financial, healthcare, and personal welfare matters, enabling personalised decision-making based on your preferences.
  4. Financial Security : The Property and Financial Affairs LPA empowers your appointed attorney to manage your finances, ensuring bills are paid, investments are handled responsibly, and your assets are safeguarded during incapacity.
  5. Health & Welfare : With the Health and Welfare LPA, your chosen attorney can make healthcare decisions aligned with your prior wishes, providing you with an Attorney who ensures your well-being and medical preferences are upheld.
  6. Peace of Mind : Having an LPA in place gives you and your loved ones peace of mind, knowing that you have a designated person to handle critical matters during challenging times.
  7. Preventing Exploitation : The LPA reduces the risk of others taking advantage of your vulnerability during incapacitation, as only your trusted attorney(s) will have the legal authority to act on your behalf.
  8. Flexibility in Appointment : You can appoint multiple attorneys, specify when their authority comes into effect, and choose whether they act jointly or independently, providing flexibility in tailoring the LPA to your unique needs.
  9. Time and Cost Savings : Creating an LPA while you are mentally competent is faster and more cost-effective than court proceedings required to appoint a deputy if you become incapacitated without an LPA.
  10. Empowering Loved Ones : By establishing an LPA, you empower your loved ones to focus on providing emotional support rather than facing uncertainty and disagreements about decision-making during times of incapacitation.
