Peace of Mind for You and Your Family
Losing Mental Capacity
Loss of mental capacity tends to be associated with getting older, and illnesses such as dementia. In fact, if someone you love loses their mental capacity after the age of 18 (when parental responsibility has ended), through an accident or even a stroke, they are at risk of having no one legally able to make their health and care decisions, or to manage their finances for them.
Without a Lasting Powers of Attorney
Without valid a Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) in place, your family will have to apply for a deputyship order at the Court of Protection. It is a costly, lengthy process, that often results in the appointment of a specialist accountant or solicitor to legally manage your finances. If a family member is appointed, they will not enjoy the same freedoms offered by Lasting Powers of Attorney.
Types of Lasting Powers of Attorney
Personal and Financial
Under this type of agreement, the attorneys you choose can carry out a wide range of responsibilities on your behalf, from simple everyday banking tasks, to being able to sign to sell a property for you.
Health and Welfare
This type of agreement allows the attorneys you have chosen to make decisions about the care you receive, including where you receive it, and even whether life sustaining treatment is administered in certain circumstances.
