People wrongly assume that if they were unable to manage their own affairs, their spouse or family would be able to step in and help them. Sadly, this is not the case! A durable Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is essential to enable your family to help you. I am a fully qualified practising solicitor with many years’ experience and can prepare your LPA for a fraction of the price of high street firms. Home/ carehome/hospital visits are standard. FOR £150*, I WILL PREPARE AN LPA FOR FINANCIAL AFFAIRS This will allow your loved ones to deal with all your financial institutions, challenge your bills, and sign contracts on your behalf. FOR £150*, I WILL PREPARE AN LPA FOR HEALTH AND WELFARE This will allow your loved ones to speak on your behalf and make key decisions about your medical treatment and where you would prefer to live.
