Lasting Power Of Attorney & Will Writing Explained
Event Information
About this Event
What if one loses his mental capacity due to illness or accident, the family members will not automatically be given the right to make decisions on the person's behalf or have access to his money (if there is no LPA).
They have to apply to the court to be a deputy, and the cost ranges from $3,000 to $10,000, as it includes lawyers' and court fees and this may take as long as a year.
Some 33,360 people have already appointed someone to make decisions on their behalf if they become mentally incapacitated, through a legal document called Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) since it first begin in 2010 until August 2017.
