Powers of Attorney

When you need to give authority for another to make decisions on your behalf we can prepare this legal document for you. A legal Power of Attorney gives you peace of mind at a time when you may become unable to manage your affairs. For example, this may be required in ill health or old age.

A common reason for needing Power of Attorney is due to mental difficulties when a Lasting Power of Attorney or an application to the Court of Protection might be required: both of these can be quite expensive. However, people with mobility difficulties (who still have full mental capacity) might still require a simple Power of Attorney, which is usually fairly inexpensive to prepare.

We can help you with all types and varieties of Powers of Attorney.
