Lasting Powers of Attorney

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) ensures that someone you trust can make decisions on your behalf if you ever can’t. It’s a key part of good planning — one that protects your interests and gives peace of mind to those close to you. I’ll guide you through setting up LPAs for health, welfare, property or financial affairs, making the process clear, efficient and stress-free.

Why Powers of Attorney Matter

An LPA allows someone you choose to act for you if you lose capacity or simply need support managing your affairs. Without one, even close family members can face difficulties accessing accounts or making vital decisions on your behalf.

Simple, Supportive and Secure

I’ll explain the different types of LPA — Health & Welfare and Property & Financial Affairs — and help you decide who to appoint. Every document is drafted carefully, registered correctly, and handled with the discretion and respect it deserves.

Frequently asked questions
A few of the things people often ask before getting started and if your question isn’t here, I’m always happy to help directly.
How long does it take to set everything up?
Most services are completed within a few weeks, depending on what’s required and how quickly documents are reviewed and approved.
Do I need to prepare anything before our first meeting?
Not usually — I’ll guide you on anything helpful to have, but the first conversation is simply about understanding your situation and priorities.
Can you work alongside my financial advisor?
Yes, I regularly work with advisers and accountants to ensure your planning is joined-up and aligned with your wider financial picture.
What areas do you cover?
I provide estate planning services across the North West of England, with in-person appointments available locally. I’m based in Crosby and also work with clients remotely where appropriate.
Is there any obligation after the initial consultation?
No — the initial consultation is free and without obligation, giving you space to decide what’s right for you.
How much do your services cost?
Costs depend on the service you need, but pricing is always explained clearly upfront so there are no surprises.
