If you decide to put in place a Lasting Power of Attorney, you will need to choose the right person or people to be your Attorney and you may also consider having replacement Attorneys.

Welfare Benefits Services

The welfare benefits system is complicated. For families of a disabled or vulnerable person, complex circumstances and time pressures collide to make the world of benefits particularly difficult.

Powers of Attorney

There may be a time in your life, whether it be through illness or travel when you may require someone else to handle your affairs.
