Lasting Powers Of Attorney Sussex

Our service provides clear guidance through the Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) process. We help you appoint attorneys to make decisions about your property, finances, health and care with confidence.

What is an LPA?

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document. It allows you to appoint one or more attorneys to make decisions and act on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. An LPA is a legally recognised document, covering property and financial affairs or health and welfare matters.

This can cover decisions related to your health, finances and personal well-being. It upholds your best interests even when you are unable to manage them yourself.

Do I Need an LPA?

Yes, it is an extremely important document that highlights your needs when you can't speak for yourself. The two types of LPA are:

Property and Financial Affairs LPA:
Allows your attorney to handle your bills, manage your bank accounts, or sell your home.
Health and Welfare LPA: Covers day-to-day personal care, medical treatment and decisions around life-sustaining treatment.

As time progresses, it's essential to put both of these types of LPA in place for your peace of mind. It can simplify things for your loved ones in the future, especially during difficult periods. If you don't have one in place, the court appoints a deputy to manage your affairs in the court of protection.
