How we can help

Advice shaped around the situation in front of you.

We explain the two types of Lasting Power of Attorney, help you decide who should act and prepare the forms for registration with the Office of the Public Guardian.

Property and financial affairs

Covering matters such as banking, bills, investments and property, within the authority you choose to give.

Health and welfare

Covering personal welfare and medical decisions when you are unable to make those decisions yourself.

Attorneys and safeguards

Careful consideration of who should act, whether they act jointly and the instructions or preferences to include.

The process

A clear route from first conversation to next step.

  1. Discuss the decisions you want covered and the people you trust.
  2. Choose the type of LPA, attorneys and any replacement attorneys.
  3. Review the draft forms, safeguards and signing order.
  4. Complete signing and submit the documents for registration.
The right approach depends on the facts, documents and any deadline. We will explain the scope and likely cost before substantive work begins.
