Property & Affairs LPA

Your money, property and bills in safe hands

Choose someone you trust to look after your finances if you ever can’t – paying your bills, running your bank accounts, dealing with pensions and benefits and, if it were ever needed, selling your home. If you choose, it can be used as soon as it’s registered (with your permission), so it can help even while you still have capacity. Get started ⟶

Health & Welfare LPA

Keep a say over your care and treatment

Let someone you trust make decisions about your daily care and medical treatment if you can no longer make them yourself. You can also decide in advance whether your Attorneys may give or refuse consent to life-sustaining treatment. A Health & Welfare LPA can only be used once you’re unable to decide for yourself.

For a Pair of LPAs

An LPA Property & Affairs and an LPA Health & Welfare

Once your LPA has been duly signed and witnessed, it must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian before it can be used. The OPG registration fee must be paid separately and is currently £92 for each LPA – but if you’re on a low income or receive certain benefits, you may only be required to pay half or nothing at all.
