Power of Attorney & Guardianship Services
At HSM Solicitors, we recognise the importance of establishing comprehensive legal protections in the event of incapacity or the need for guardianship. Our expert team offers robust and compassionate power of attorney and guardianship services to empower individuals and their families to navigate challenging circumstances with clarity and security.
Safeguard your interests and welfare
Establishing a lasting power of attorney (POA) is a critical step in safeguarding your interests in the event of incapacity. Our team at HSM Solicitors is dedicated to guiding clients through the process, ensuring that their chosen attorneys have the legal authority to make decisions on their behalf and protect their welfare and financial affairs.
Health & Welfare POA
Creating a health and welfare Power of Attorney allows individuals to appoint trusted representatives to make decisions regarding their medical treatment, care requirements, and living arrangements should they become unable to express their wishes. HSM Solicitors provides expert assistance in drafting health and welfare POAs, offering tailored advice to ensure that clients’ preferences are clearly documented and respected.
Property & Financial POA
A property and financial affairs Power of Attroney allows individuals to authorise attorneys to manage their finances, property, and business affairs when they are unable to do so themselves. Our legal team at HSM Solicitors offers comprehensive support in creating property and financial affairs LPAs, providing peace of mind that financial matters will be effectively managed in accordance with the individual’s preferences.
Guardianship Applications
In cases where individuals are unable to make decisions for themselves and do not have a pre-existing Power of Attorney in place already, it may be necessary to apply for guardianship. HSM Solicitors understands the complexities of guardianship applications and offers robust legal guidance to individuals seeking to become guardians, or for family members requiring assistance in navigating the guardianship application process.
