In the absence of a Lasting Power of Attorney, it would be necessary for someone who cares about you to apply to the Court of Protection. The Court of Protection is a specialist Court designed to set up a Court Order (Deputyship) to manage your affairs. Having an LPA in place helps to simplify the process should any problems arise.
You have great flexibility in whom you can appoint as attorney, and you can even appoint replacement attorney(s) if the person you originally appointed is unable to act. You can also make a separate, Lasting Power of Attorney for your health and care decisions, if you wish.
Recently there have been some significant improvements in the LPA process, allowing Lasting Powers of Attorney to be set up online in the UK. This is positive for a number of reasons, because it can speed up the process. However, there is a misconception that this removes the need for a Power of Attorney Solicitor.
Appointing a Lasting Power of Attorney Solicitor means that you can have full control over the process and its safeguards against fraud, leaving less room for error. If you’re thinking of setting up Power of Attorney, we would recommend reading our blog on online Power Of Attorney and getting in touch with our Power of Attorney Solicitors in Liverpool.
If you’re looking to become a Power of Attorney for someone, it’s worth noting that the person you are acting on behalf of must have full mental capacity. If they don’t, a Court of Protection Order can be applied for.
