Power of Attorney

Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) allow you to appoint someone you trust to manage your affairs if you are temporarily or permanently unable to do so yourself. Our experienced team can help you tailor your LPA to both meet your needs now and keep a close eye on the future.

There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA):

Property and Financial Affairs – this allows your Attorneys to manage your financial affairs for you. This LPA can be used as soon as it is registered, regardless of whether you have mental capacity or not.

Health and Welfare – this allows your Attorneys to make decisions about your care including medical treatment. Once registered, this document will only become active once you have lost mental capacity.

Both types of LPA can be written to give your Attorneys full ability to manage your affairs in your best interests, or to only allow them to make specific decisions.

Our Wills and Probate Department are a member of the Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme and some of our Lawyers have additional, professional qualifications with STEP, the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners which enables them to give specialist advice, bespoke to your matter.

Chloe Jay helped my son when he got into bother. She was efficient, professional and knowledgable, but also very approachable. I felt able to ring and speak with her when needed, (obviously she asked my son if he was happy for me to speak on his bahalf). Thank you Chloe for making us feel supported in a difficult situation. I''d also like to mention Shae who was also very knowledgeable and approachable when I couldn't speak to Chloe. I would recommend Chloe to anyone for criminal legal representation.

Michelle and team at Shentons were brilliant at handling our property purchase. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them. The quality of work and service was excellent, Michelle is on the ball and responsive to emails, she pushed the other side and made sure we were comfortable and informed at every step. Despite being thrown some curve balls Michelle remained calm, and dealt with all of them in an efficient but thorough manner. From quote to completion everything her and her team did was excellent, and in line with the estimate given which for first time buyers allowed us to budget without fear of massive final bill. It’s nice to know what you are getting into. And finally to top it off they are all lovely approachable people that I wouldn’t hesitate to trust with such a big purchase or sale going forward. If you want the job done properly I wouldn’t use any other firm.
