A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows you to appoint one or more trusted people to make decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so in the future.
There are two types of LPA: one for Health and Welfare decisions, and one for Property and Financial Affairs. Each covers different aspects of decision-making.
A Health and Welfare LPA is used only if you lose mental capacity, while a Property and Financial Affairs LPA can be used with your permission or if you are no longer able to manage your affairs.
Setting up an LPA early ensures your wishes are respected and avoids the need for the courts to appoint someone to make decisions on your behalf, which can be time-consuming and stressful.
