POWERS OF ATTORNEY

Help when you need it most

 

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a registered document that gives you control of either, or both, the financial affairs and/or the health of your loved one when they are unable to express their own wishes through illness or incapacity.

  • Are you looking after elderly parents or relatives?

  • Worried about how you might be able to look after them in the future?

One in four people in the UK dies at home. But three in four want to.*

You can help your loved ones get the care they want by registering a Lasting Power of Attorney.

We can visit you and your loved ones either at home or in a care home to help you put your legal affairs in order and put your mind at rest.

“It has been a pleasure dealing with MDW solicitors as your professionalism and helpfulness has made the process of applying for power-of-attorney very painless.”

It is never too early to create a Lasting Power of Attorney, but it can be too late

None of us want to think about a time when we might not be able to make decisions for ourselves. But if you don’t document your personal wishes, then they can’t be respected.

  • Do you want the Medical Profession to decide on your care, without your family’s consent?

  • Are you happy for the State to move you into a care home, even if your family knows it is not what you want?

  • Can you imagine your family facing a lengthy and expensive court battle to gain access to your finances so they can pay for the support you need?
