Why should you make lasting powers of attorney

Many of us will need help managing our affairs as we age. A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) lets you choose trusted family or friends to make decisions about your finances, health, and welfare if you can't. Without one, bank accounts can be frozen, insurance claims become difficult, and strangers might make crucial decisions. Learn why proactive LPA planning is essential to avoid a lengthy, expensive Court of Protection process and ensure your wishes are honoured.
