SJP Enduring Power of Attorney

It is difficult to image a situation whereby we will not have complete control of our own affairs.

However, an accident, physical ill-health or the onset of mental illness can make everyday tasks such as paying bills, managing a budget and making welfare decisions difficult, stressful and, in some cases, impossible.

Appropriate planning can help to make this situation easier and allow you to appoint someone you trust – typically a family member or close friend – to act on your behalf in the event that you later need help managing your affairs.

Enduring Power of Attorney gives you power to appoint someone to have power over your property and financial affairs when and if you are no-longer able to make decisions by yourself. For example, helping you deal with shares, pensions and home care fees.
