Better LPA Forms


 

The Office of the Public Guardian has responded to criticisms of its overly complex forms for creating a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) by issuing new and simplified forms.

An LPA allows a person to give a friend, relative or trusted advisor the power to make decisions about their property or personal affairs if they become unable to do so for themselves – for example as a result of a brain injury or mental disorder.
