While everyone hopes that they and their families will continue to enjoy good health, it is important to consider the steps to take when you or your family members become elderly or vulnerable.
The Penningtons Manches Cooper private client team is adept at providing timely and sympathetic assistance when a client feels that they cannot continue to handle their financial and legal affairs as a result of either old age or illness.
We provide support and assistance both for clients who are concerned about the future loss of their mental capacity and for families when a loved one is sadly no longer capable of looking after their own financial affairs.
Our skilled team also advises on the making and implementation of lasting powers of attorney (LPA) and living wills to enable clients to provide a framework of support and guidance in the event that they may not able to manage their property and affairs in the future.
As a key concern for anyone planning their future care is the question of where they are to live, we also advise on the effects of legislation in the provision and support of long term care whether in a care home or in a person’s own home.
