Losing Mental Capacity
Loss of mental capacity tends to be associated with getting older, and illnesses such as dementia. 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 will have no one legally able to make their health and wealth decisions for them. Loss of mental capacity tends to be associated with getting older, and illnesses such as dementia where, in fact, it can happen to anyone at any time.

Without a Lasting Power of Attorney
Without registered Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) in place, your family will have no alternative but to apply for a deputyship order at the Court of Protection. This is a costly, and 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 a Lasting Power 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.

We will guide you through and apply on your behalf for a Lasting Powers of Attorney, including drawing up the necessary forms, overseeing your signature process, and carrying out the registration for you at the Court of Protection.
