Lasting Power of Attorney Guidance

Having a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is crucial. The future can be daunting, especially when you don’t know what it holds - but having one in place can make the process of understanding that your future isn’t guaranteed all that bit easier.

No longer being able to deal with your finances independently can be an unpleasant thought but choosing a reliable Attorney could help bring relief. Attorneys make decisions for you, acting on your behalf and making the best choices possible.

Although this process can be confusing, the hard-working, friendly solicitors at Bell Lamb & Joynson work alongside you to make sure the process is as easy as it can be.

Whether it’s a decline in health or you just want more security when it comes to future financial affairs, we’re here to help. With many people avoiding putting in place an LPA until it is too late, we urge our potential customers to reach out today and get the process started. For more information, read on.

 

What is an Attorney?

An Attorney is someone appointed by a person to take care of their finances in later life when something happens or that person cannot make decisions independently. Managing the affairs of someone else can seem like a difficult task to take on, but a discussion takes place with the person deciding on who to choose.

At Bell Lamb & Joynson, we understand the difficulties that come with arranging an LPA. We always provide new clients with a warm welcome, making sure they know that they can be open with their emotions during the process of choosing an Attorney.

Our expert solicitors put their all into making sure that the right decisions are made when it comes to choosing an Attorney. We work collaboratively alongside customers and their families - we believe it's essential to choose the right Attorney and that those who are chosen are happy to act.

 

Why is it Important to Have a Lasting Power of Attorney?

Having a Lasting Power of Attorney is key, especially when your future isn’t promised. For over 200 years, Bell Lamb & Joynson have been providing excellent services to the people of the UK. Making sure our customers understand the importance of having an LPA is something we advocate.

If anything were to happen to you in the future, having the added sense of security can help make the situation all that bit easier. Relatives are often left desperate unable to obtain access to their loved one's money when things go wrong later in life - perhaps they need money to fund a care home or to pay for important treatment.

Having a reliable solicitor by your side during the process of choosing an Attorney can help massively. Living your life knowing there's a person in place to take care of things when you’re not around is something that can be beneficial for many. Whether it’s dealing with your property or simply having access to your accounts, your Attorney must be someone you trust.
