The benefits of drawing up a Will are widely recognised, but what is less well known, is that you can also put in place directions and provisions in advance of the possibility of becoming physically or mentally incapable of managing on your affairs.

A Power of Attorney enables you to appoint someone to look after your affairs in the event of you becoming physically or mentally incapable.

There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorneys; one dealing with your financial affairs and the other your personal welfare.  You do not have to have both types; You can have one without the other and like your Will it can be amended as your situation changes.
