Have you ever considered what would happen to your home and savings if you struggled or became mentally or physically incapable of looking after your personal and financial affairs?

‍

After working hard all your life, you certainly have the right to decide who has control over your affairs in case you lose your mental capacity due to an accident or through illnesses, like strokes, dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

‍

The number of people with dementia in the UK is expected to grow rapidly over the next several decades, according to Alzheimer's Research UK.

‍

Age is one of the most significant factors for mental illnesses, such as dementia.

‍

Research also shows that 1 in 14 of UK adults aged above 65 years is diagnosed with some form of dementia.

‍

What is startling is that 44 million people do not have a Power of Attorney, which represents 85% of the UK population.

‍

Not having a lasting power of attorney in place means your loves ones have no say in your care and financial decisions.

‍

At Town & Country Law, our highly experienced Lasting Power of Attorney solicitors are ready to help clients throughout the UK to arrange a Lasting Power of Attorney and safeguard their future.

‍

We will work closely with you to determine the best course of action for your requirements and desires, listening to you attentively and guiding you through the process. Moreover, we will work tirelessly to ensure that your voice is heard if you are ever unable to communicate yourself.

‍

Furthermore, Lasting Powers of Attorney can be established so that they can only be used once mental capacity is lost, thus ensuring that no one makes decisions on your behalf until the time is right. LPA solicitors can help with this.

‍

So, whether you need a Property and Financial Affairs LPA (Lasting Power of Attorney) or a Health and Welfare LPA, we are here to help. Simply contact our friendly and approachable Power of Attorney solicitors today to benefit from our specialist legal knowledge and wealth of experience.
