Why you need a Power of Attorney

In life, situations arise where you may be unable to make important decisions about your health, finances, or property. These could include sudden illness, cognitive decline, or accidents. Having a Power of Attorney in place ensures that your personal affairs are taken care of by someone you trust, in a way that reflects your wishes.

Without a Power of Attorney, your loved ones may face lengthy and complicated legal processes to obtain permission to manage your affairs. By planning ahead, you can avoid added stress and make sure things are handled the way you want.

The Different Types of Powers of Attorney

General Power of Attorney

This document allows someone to manage your affairs while you’re able to make decisions. It’s typically used for a set period, like when you’re abroad or temporarily incapacitated.

Enduring Power of Attorney

This allows someone to make decisions for you regarding your property and financial affairs. If you become mentally incapacitated, this type of Power of Attorney remains valid.

Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)

The LPA has two types:

  • Property and Financial Affairs LPA: This covers decisions related to your money, property, and assets.
  • Health and Welfare LPA: This covers decisions about your medical care and personal well-being if you become incapacitated.

FAQs about Powers of Attorney

Planning ahead? MAR Legal answers common questions about Lasting Powers of Attorney and why they matter for your future and loved ones.

An LPA is a legal document that lets someone you trust make decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. There are two types: one for health and welfare, and one for property and financial affairs.

If you lose the ability to make decisions (due to illness or accident), no one can act for you without legal authority. An LPA ensures someone you trust can manage your finances, care decisions, or home.

Choose someone responsible and trustworthy—often a family member, friend, or professional. You can also appoint more than one person and set how they make decisions together.

  • Property and Financial Affairs: Covers money, bills, property, pensions, etc.
  • Health and Welfare: Covers medical care, where you live, and life-sustaining treatment.

You can choose to have one or both.

Yes, as long as you still have mental capacity. The LPA only kicks in fully when you can no longer decide for yourself (or earlier, if you choose for financial matters).

Now. You can only make an LPA while you have mental capacity. Many people wait too long and then need costly court intervention (a deputyship application) if they lose capacity unexpectedly.

No. Illnesses, accidents, or sudden medical conditions can affect anyone at any age. Creating an LPA is a sensible part of adult life planning.

It’s possible to do it yourself, but mistakes can cause delays or rejections by the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG). MAR Legal ensures it’s done correctly, efficiently, and in your best interest.


Your family would need to apply to the Court of Protection for a deputyship order, which is expensive, slow, and may not appoint the person you would have chosen.

We guide you through the entire process—choosing attorneys, completing and registering the LPA forms, and making sure your wishes are clearly expressed. Get in touch to start planning.
