Understanding LPAs helps you protect yourself and your family

What is an LPA?

A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document that lets you choose someone (called an attorney) to make decisions on your behalf if you ever lose mental capacity — whether through illness, injury, or age.

Two types of LPA

Property & Financial Affairs: Covers money, property, bank accounts, investments. Health & Welfare: Covers medical decisions, care arrangements, daily living choices.

When does it come into effect?

You decide. It can be registered immediately (so your attorney can use it with your permission now), or only if/when you lose capacity. Most people choose one or the other strategy.

Why both types?

They cover different decisions. You need both to have complete protection — one handles money, the other handles healthcare and personal decisions.

Cost without an LPA

If you lose capacity and have no LPA, your family must apply to the Court of Protection — expensive (often £1,000–£2,000+ in year one) and slow. An LPA prevents this entirely.

How long does it take?

Draft within 2 working days. OPG registration typically takes 8–12 weeks. Once registered, it's legally effective immediately.

Sort both together

Many people put a will and their LPAs in place at the same time. Bundling saves up to £100 against buying each separately.
