PERSONAL WELFARE LPAS AND ADVANCE DECISIONS

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.
