Do you need help managing the financial affairs or health decisions of a relative? Are you concerned that failing health may leave you incapable of managing your own finances and general well being? We can help.
Financial Decisions
This allows your attorney to make decisions such as:
Managing your bank accounts and investments
Claiming your pension and benefits on your behalf
Paying Bills
Health & Care Decisions
This allows your attorney to make decisions such as:
Where you live
How you are cared for
Medical treatments
Respected financial journalist Martin Lewis has said in his weekly newsletter that having a Lasting Power of Attorney in place is “even more important than a Will” and we wholeheartedly agree. If you lose mental capacity it can take months for your family to appoint a Deputy through the courts and will cost thousands of pounds in upfront and annual court fees.
Purchase a Will and a Lasting Power of Attorney together to save money
If you are worried about the cost of obtaining both a Will and an LPA then we have a cost effective solution to that problem. If you purchase a Will and an LPA at the same time then we pass the saving in time on to you through a discount on the individual prices. The more protection you purchase, the more you save meaning a couple purchasing a will and two LPAs each will achieve substantial savings.
