The Lasting Power of Attorney services advertised as taking 15 or 20 minutes are rather misleading. Although you may be able to complete an application form online or over the phone in minutes, a signed Lasting Power of Attorney will not provide an Attorney with any legal power until it has been registered with the Office of The Public Guardian (OPG). Unfortunately, the Office of the Public Guardian's registration process takes several months to complete.
Our Express Power of Attorney service is different, it has been designed for people who do not want to wait or cannot afford to wait several months to begin using their Power of Attorney to help their elderly relative.
Our Power of Attorney service uses the standard legal measure of a Power of Attorney and measures endorsed by leading later life Advocates. These combine to ensure Attorneys can begin to speak on behalf of their relative and help make important decisions straight away.
Our Express Power of Attorney Service provides the following key benefits:
We make the process of setting up a Power of Attorney very easy. Relatives and their Attorneys answer a few simple questions in an online questionnaire, we fully complete all of necessary documentation and then send the completed documentation to you by guaranteed next day delivery.
We are not the only firm that can put in place a legal Power of Attorney in only a few days. Several top notch firms of Solicitors who specialises in later life advocacy could also provide this service. However, you may have to wait weeks for an appointment to visit their offices and they may charge several thousands of pounds for this service.
A Power of Attorney is a vital safeguard to ensure you and your family can continue to live without intrusion and with dignity. If you are concerned that waiting several months may be to long our Express Power of Attorney service is the best solution.
