Lasting Power of Attorney
Whether you would like to create a power of attorney to provide reassurance for the future, or you need to challenge an existing power of attorney, we can help. At Farnfields, we have in-depth knowledge of this specialist area and can answer any questions you may have.
Many people choose to create a lasting power of attorney (LPA) to provide protection should they be unable to make their own decisions in the future. Creating a power of attorney is a good way to ensure that your wishes will be respected in the future if you are ever in a position, due to illness or injury, where you are unable to make your own decisions.
Sometimes you may not agree with the decisions that an attorney is making on behalf of a relative or loved one and you may wish to challenge them. If this is the case, we can provide the help and support you need. We will let you know if you can challenge the power of attorney and will guide you through the process. We can also help you appeal to the Court of Protection in order to make decisions on behalf of a relative.
Please see our Family Department videos linked here or our leaflet with some options for you to consider.
