A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) lets you appoint someone you trust to make decisions about your health, welfare or finances if you lose mental capacity. Without one, your family may need to apply to the Court of Protection, which is costly, stressful and time-consuming.

Types of LPA

  • Health and Welfare LPA, decisions about medical treatment, care and daily routine
  • Property and Financial Affairs LPA: managing bank accounts, paying bills, selling property

Why It Matters

  • Without an LPA, even your spouse cannot manage your finances if you lose capacity
  • Court of Protection applications take months and cost thousands
  • You choose who makes decisions, not the court
  • LPAs must be made while you have mental capacity
  • One of the most important documents alongside your will

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I set up an LPA?
As soon as possible. An LPA can only be created while you have mental capacity. Many people set one up alongside their will. It's not just for elderly people, accidents and illness can happen at any age.
Can I have more than one attorney?
Yes. You can appoint multiple attorneys to act jointly (together) or jointly and severally (independently). We'll help you decide the best structure.
