Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
Planning Ahead for Peace of Mind
A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to choose someone you trust to make important decisions for you if you lose capacity. Without one, your family may face costly and stressful court processes to gain authority.
At Legacy Assured Ltd, we prepare and register your LPAs with the Office of the Public Guardian, ensuring everything is done correctly. We’ll explain your options in plain English and support you every step of the way.
