There may come a time, through illness, disability or accident, when you are incapable of managing your own affairs.
Making a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) lets you appoint someone you trust to make important decisions on your behalf, regarding your property and financial affairs and your personal welfare, on either a temporary or permanent basis.
If you haven´t made an LPA and important decisions need to be made that you are incapable of making, the case is referred to the Court of Protection, who can appoint someone to make those decisions for you.
Bakewells Solicitors can handle all the responsibilities involved in giving someone permission to help manage your affairs.
