Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) – Property & Financial Affairs / Health & Welfare – Prepare and Certify
What is a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)?
A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows an individual (the ‘donor’) to appoint one or more trusted individuals (attorneys) to make decisions on their behalf in the event they lose mental capacity. It covers two main areas: Property & Financial Affairs and Health & Welfare.
Why Might You Need It?
- To ensure your finances are managed if you become unable to do so
- To allow a trusted person to make healthcare decisions on your behalf
- To prevent court-appointed deputies from making decisions against your wishes
Legal Implications of Not Having This Document
- Family members may need to go through a costly and lengthy court process to gain authority over your affairs
- Risk of financial mismanagement if no one has legal authority to act
- Healthcare providers may make decisions that do not align with your preferences
