Wills & Powers of Attorney – Blackpool

Lasting Powers of Attorney

Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) give authority to a person or persons of your choosing to take decisions on your behalf when you are unable.

There are two types of LPA:

Health and Welfare which allows a person to appoint an attorney to make decisions about their care, daily routines, medical treatment and living arrangements if they lose capacity to make those decisions themselves; and
Property and Financial Affairs, which allows a person to appoint an attorney to manage their finances, bank accounts, property and other financial matters. It can be used when a person still has mental capacity with the permission of the donor.
