Friendly, intelligent advice on preparing a lasting power of attorney
-
While the future is impossible to predict, it is possible to plan for
A lasting power of attorney (LPA) is a means of planning so that your care, and your finances, can be managed in the way you would like, even if you’re not able to make decisions about these yourself. You can nominate a trusted attorney to act on your behalf, whether that’s someone you know like a family member or close friend, or you can nominate a solicitor. Through Willans Trust Corporation, we are authorised to act as attorney for our clients.

Our power of attorney solicitors are well-regarded in the region and we have an excellent reputation for both technical excellence and client care.
