Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
Lasting Power of Attorney Service
Setting up a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is one of the most important ways to protect your future – but getting it right really matters.
Yes, you can create an LPA online through the government website for £92 — but this only covers the registration fee and leaves you to manage the paperwork, forms, and decisions yourself. Mistakes can cause costly delays or even invalidate the LPA completely.
That’s why our lasting power of attorney service is designed to give you complete confidence and support throughout the process. At Simon Hall Will Writing Services, we don’t just fill in a form. We guide you through the entire process — from choosing the right attorneys, to setting boundaries, to handling registration with the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG). We take care of all the running around behind the scenes — so you can have real peace of mind, not just paperwork.

Why Set Up a Lasting Power of Attorney?
Life can change unexpectedly. Illness, accidents, or age-related conditions like dementia can affect your ability to make decisions for yourself.
Setting up an LPA ensures that:
- You choose who will make decisions — not the courts
- Your wishes are followed
- Your loved ones can act quickly in an emergency
- You avoid long, costly legal processes if capacity is lost
It’s like having an insurance policy — you hope you’ll never need it, but if you do, it’s invaluable.

What Is a Lasting Power of Attorney?
An LPA is a legal document known as a ‘deed’ that allows you (the donor) to appoint one or more attorneys — usually family members or close friends — to make decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity.
Attorneys must be over 18 and not bankrupt or subject to a debt relief order.
There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorney, and we recommend having both:
Property and Financial Affairs LPA
This LPA allows someone to:
- Pay your bills
- Access your bank accounts
- Manage your property or investments
- Handle day-to-day financial tasks if you are unwell, abroad, or lose capacity
Health and Welfare LPA
This covers decisions about:
- Medical treatment
- Where you live
- Your daily routine and personal care
- End-of-life care
A health and welfare LPA only comes into effect when you can no longer make decisions yourself. Without it, loved ones may not be able to make critical health decisions on your behalf.

Why Choose Our Lasting Power of Attorney Service?
When it comes to something as personal as a Lasting Power of Attorney, you deserve a service that truly puts you first. At Simon Hall Will Writing Services, we take the time to understand your circumstances, your values, and your family’s needs, because an LPA should reflect more than just legal words on paper; it should reflect you.
We’re a family-run firm built on care, clarity, and compassion. That means no confusing jargon, no hidden costs, and no pressure, just friendly, professional guidance every step of the way. Our priority is to make sure you feel confident and supported from start to finish, knowing your future decisions will always be in safe hands.
Why a Professionally Drafted LPA Really Matters
A well-prepared Lasting Power of Attorney doesn’t just record your wishes — it protects them.
Here’s what we help you achieve:
- You Stay in Control
We’ll make sure you’re not pressured, confused, or unsure about what you’re agreeing to. - You Choose the Right People
We’ll guide you through choosing attorneys who are not just willing — but capable and suitable for the job. - Your Wishes Are Clear
We can include specific instructions, limits, and safeguards so your wishes can’t easily be ignored or misunderstood. - You Avoid Future Problems
Banks, care providers, and family members can all deal with clear, professionally prepared LPAs without confusion or conflict. - We Handle the Hard Work
We prepare, draft, and register your LPAs — and handle the legal admin with the Office of the Public Guardian on your behalf.
What If I Already Have an EPA?
If you have an Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA) created before 2007, it’s still valid — but it only covers property and financial matters.
We strongly recommend setting up a health and welfare LPA as well to ensure all aspects of your care are covered.
What Is an Emergency Lasting Power of Attorney?
In urgent situations – such as hospital admission or rapid health decline – we can help fast-track the process of preparing and submitting your LPA.
While the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) still requires a standard registration period, our emergency LPA service ensures all documents are professionally prepared and submitted immediately, with priority assistance at every step.

He was friendly and put you at ease and went through various scenarios of the will process and mentioned things which we probably hadn’t thought of.
Then sent through a proof of the wishes we wanted and drafted the main will.
Communication was good though out .
Would definitely recommend to family and friends
If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable Will writing service,then I recommend that you give Stephanie a call .
Wendy with the writing of our wills. Everything was clearly explained and our wishes were thoughtfully considered. Our meeting at home made a big difference when discussing sensitive information and it was a smooth and stress free process. Wendy’s communication was fantastic throughout.
I would highly recommend Simon Hall Will Writing Service.
I was visited at Home by Dudley Moore Who was , pleasant and very informative, Guiding me through the process with ease, And very patiently explaining everything to me.
The price I paid was the same that was quoted to me on the phone, No hidden extras.
I would not hesitate to recommend this sperm to anyone.
Thank you so much.
Simon gives practical advise and support to the decisions that need to be taken during these times.
Simon is very thorough, he makes an initial visit to you at home to talk through the decisions that need to be made...sends draft documents for review....then revisits for signatures.....and in the case of LPAs submitted and received back before revisiting to ensure each page is signed ensuring it's watertight...

Simon recently facilitated my special needs brother in remaking his LPA by modifying his language and taking more time in explaining each stage. He made the process as stress-free as possible.
I know that if I needed further advice regarding the LPA Simon and his team are easily contacted
Highly recommend Simon Hall Will writing and LPA services in Exeter
From the outset it is clear that Simon knows his trade inside out, and how to deal with what can be quite a sensitive subject for many. He is very professional in the way he makes you feel very much at ease, explains the whole process in detail, and keeps you informed every step of the way. Simon and Linda's attention to detail is second to none and I would highly recommend them and their services.
It was quite complicated as we were bringing two new families together.
Simon explained the process thoroughly and made it feel simple to put together.
We would highly recommend the team.
Thanks
Peter and Tracy
They were friendly and helpful from the very start and have been very understanding regarding delays i have imposed on the whole process for various reasons.
Their guidance and suggestions have been invaluble.
Sadly I cant say the same for Solicitors that I have used previously.
If you need help in dealing with this essential task, we would highly recommend Simon.
This gave us the opportunity to ask, go over and get answers to a great many questions and get real clarity to those aspects we did not understand.
Simon gave us a very relaxed, friendly but professional service and I would only recommend this company as there was no other service provider willing to come to my home for the process.
If you prefer a genuine hands on and personal approach to Will preparation, then I feel will only tick all of those boxes through Simon Hall Will Writing Services, a friendly and truly professional service provider. We are extremely happy not only to have chosen Simon but also with the outcome we achieved. A genuinely big thank you to Simon, a deserved 5 stars
From our 1st enquiry to completion, the entire service was seamless.
Lovely relaxed approach in the comfort of our own home. Simon is professional & very knowledgeable, making the whole process easy to understand.
We would highly recommend their services without hesitation.
Thank you, much appreciated 😊
He was very professional and informative giving me plenty of time and advice enabling me to understand what I required for the future.
I received the draft for review the next day. This was very impressive and in a time scale faster than I expected.
I recommend Simon and Linda’s will writing services.
Simon visited us in person, which we thought was a really professional & personal touch in this age of technology. Through chatting Simon identified that an aspect on our house deeds didn’t reflect our Will and was able to get this amended for us.
The whole process of setting up our LPAs was quick and easy - made all the more an easy experience through Simon’s personable nature. Thank you
Simon and Linda visited the home in order to catch my wife and I together. They were very helpful, comfortable to be around and communicate with, and knowledgeable. Their service was quick, concise and well simplified. They also helped us complete the process when we could afford it, without hassle or stress.
Excellent service, highly recommended.
I have recommended them to family and friends.
I happily endorse their service and following recommendations to family two are benefitting from the excellent service he provides.
