LPA Now, a division of the solicitor service provider Beechwood Solutions, offers its expertise in LPAs (Lasting Power of Attorney) to homeowners. With a professionally written LPA regarding property and financial affairs, you can rest assured that you have a valid deed in place before you lose mental capacity.
Avoid Having Appointed Decision-Maker
Whether it’s disease or age, many people want to ensure that their well-being and finances will be handled by someone they trust as they lose capacity. If you don’t have an LPA when you can’t take care of yourself, you can end up having to apply to the Court of Protection to have someone appointed, which is more costly and makes management of health and asset decisions restrictive and time-consuming for caretakers.
“The requirements for property and financial affairs can be very different from a health and welfare LPA. In all cases, the attorneys are obliged to act in your best interests for your personal welfare and to follow your instructions as closely as possible,” a company spokesperson said.
LPA- The Forgotten Legal Safety Net
While 40% of the UK’s population has a will, LPAs remain an unknown legal document, with less than 1% having one setup, according to the Office of Public Guardian. A survey revealed that 60% of potential LPA customers had the same misconception that the next of kin always gets the final say and that the other half of a couple can make decisions about their joint home and bank account.
The Office of Public Guardian highlights that a third of everyone over 65 develops dementia and that every 90 seconds, a patient with an acquired brain injury is admitted to a UK hospital, underlining the importance of having affairs in order.
Personal Advice In
LPA Now offers phone, at-home visits, and a hybrid consultation to discuss your needs and wishes. Depending on what you want, the consultants can write up an LPA covering financial decisions or health and welfare decisions, a combination of the two, or one that also covers property decisions.

LPA Now services are a personal and professional alternative to the online forms that many use to get their LPA created. In addition to being able to offer advice, the consultants handle the whole process with the Office of the Public Guardian.
