Emsworth

I always thought LPAs were just for older people, but a friend's accident made me realise it could happen to anyone. Now, I know my loved ones can act on my behalf if needed.
Sameera E

Guildford

My mum trusted me to be her attorney, and when her health declined, I was able to handle everything smoothly — without legal red tape or court delays.
Mike A

Leicester

I didn't write anything for my Preferences & Instructions. I figured the law already has safeguards in place, and my attorneys will have enough guidance to act in my best interests
Claire S

Chelmsford

Figuring out who would be my certificate provider was the last part of the form I sorted. I didn't realise how important that person would be until I read more about their role.

A friend had their LPA rejected due to an error, so I made sure mine was checked by the experts at PowerofAttorneyOnline.co.uk - best decision I made!

Great value and a very efficient service. I’d recommend everyone to get a POA, for the sake of themselves and their loved ones.

We are so relieved we have made this decision and our minds are at rest. Whatever happens, our wishes and estate will be dealt with as we would've wanted.
