Do I need a Lasting Power of Attorney?

Lasting Power of Attorney

An LPA lets people you trust make decisions if you can’t — for your finances and your health. Starting from £250, I’ll help you set up the right documents clearly and correctly.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that authorises your chosen attorneys to act on your behalf if you lose capacity. There are two types: Property & Financial Affairs (managing bank accounts, bills, property and investments) and Health & Welfare (treatment, care, and day-to-day living decisions). While you can draft an LPA yourself, many DIY applications fail due to small errors with signing order, witnessing, or wording — which can delay registration with the Office of the Public Guardian and leave you without protection when you need it most.

As a Farnborough-based professional Will writer — accredited by The Society of Will Writers, fully insured (£2m), DBS checked, and ICO registered (ZB421373) — I’ll guide you through choosing attorneys, setting preferences and instructions, and getting the forms signed and submitted correctly. Ready to put robust LPAs in place? Book your free consultation, use the contact form, or call 01252 415340. I serve Farnborough, Aldershot, Farnham, Basingstoke, and the wider Hampshire/Surrey area.
