Who needs Lasting Powers of Attorney?
You may think that LPAs are just for the retired and elderly.
But the truth is, every adult needs one. Making a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) gives you control. YOU choose who you want to support you if you need help after an accident, illness or in later life.
Here are my top 10 reasons why everyone over 18 should make Lasting Powers of Attorney.
Should I appoint my partner as my sole attorney?
It’s a sensible move to put your LPAs in place when you have the mental capacity to do so, but your choice of attorneys is crucial.
Appointing just one attorney is rarely advisable. Doing so can lead to an extra step in the house buying and selling process if your partner loses capacity, so it is worth considering other options. Learn more about Lasting Powers of Attorney and jointly owned property in this helpful article.
