Marshall and Galpin team up with
Oxford Medicolegal Consultancy
The recently implemented Mental Capacity
Act (MCA) changes the way in which people can plan for a time when they may
not be able to make decisions for themselves. For the first time you can
influence decisions about your medical and social care. You can appoint
someone to make decisions on your behalf with a “Personal Welfare” Lasting
Power of Attorney (LPA), or make a legally binding advance decision to refuse
certain treatments.
How can we help?
We feel that the clearest way to promote
your wishes is for you to discuss your needs with both a qualified lawyer and
a qualified doctor. Together you can best decide whether LPAs or Advance
Decisions best achieve your aims, and how to implement them.
