Thomas and Thomas Solicitors strive to provide you with peace of mind and reassurance regarding your future.
Why do you need a Lasting Power of Attorney?
Establishing a Lasting Power of Attorney (LAP) is a crucial step in ensuring that your affairs are taken care of by a trusted individual if you become unable to make or communicate decisions yourself for a number of reasons. It could be a temporary issue such as you’re in hospital and need support with finances such as paying bills. Or you may lose mental capacity in the future such as a dementia diagnosis, or an accident has left you unable to communicate.
Whether it is managing your finances, property, or medical decisions, having a designated person’s to act on your behalf can provide you with peace of mind and assurance that your interests are protected, no matter what the future brings. As long as you are over the age of 18 and have the mental capacity to make decisions for yourself, you can arrange for someone to make important decisions on your behalf if the need requires.
