Power of Attorney Online
Setting up a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is one of the most important decisions you can make to protect yourself and your family.
At Online Wills and Probate, we don’t just hand you a form and leave you to figure it out. We take the time to guide you through the process, explaining every option clearly, whether we meet online or in person.
With over 20 years of FCA-regulated financial and legal experience, we offer real advice, not tick-box templates.
What is a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you’re no longer able to. For instance if you become incapacitated from illness, accident, or age-related conditions.
There are two types:
Property & Financial Affairs LPA – for decisions about money, bills, pensions, property, or investments.
Health & Welfare LPA – for decisions about medical care, treatment, and living arrangements.
Without an LPA in place, your loved ones could face stressful delays and legal costs if you lose capacity.

Why Setting Up an LPA Matters
Many people assume their spouse or children can automatically make decisions if something goes wrong—but that’s not true under UK law.
If you become physically or mentally incapacitated, your family won’t be able to access your bank accounts, make medical decisions, or manage your care unless they’ve been legally appointed through an LPA.
We’ve seen first-hand the emotional and financial strain families face when this hasn’t been set up.
Setting up an LPA:
Gives you control over who makes decisions on your behalf
Prevents expensive, time-consuming court applications
Ensures your wishes are followed if you’re unable to speak for yourself
