As we get older there are often important life decisions that need to be taken. We advise our clients to make a Lasting Power of Attorney (which replaced Enduring Powers of Attorney in October 2007) so that a client will have the security of knowing who will look after their affairs, including decision making, should they not be able to do so.

We also advise on long term residential care; how it is to be paid for and the impact that may have on a family.
