Lasting Power of Attorney - Restrictions

If you do not replace any restrictions on your Lasting Power of Attorney, your attorney will be able to make decisions that you are able to make over your property and finances, if you are making a property and affairs power or over your health and welfare decisions if you are making a personal welfare power.

You may include legally binding restrictions or conditions on how your attorney should act for you. You do not need to include any and it is usually not advisable as it can prevent flexibility.

These could include preventing your attorney from making any gifts e.g. birthday presents, preventing your attorney from selling or dealing with your home, restricting where you live, restricting who you have contact with or who has contact with you.

Life sustaining treatment – you must choose in the personal welfare power whether you wish your attorney to be able to give or refuse life sustaining medical treatment which is based on the circumstances at the time and not the treatment. It does not authorise euthanasia.

Our standards, terms and conditions

We aim to offer all our Clients an efficient, effective and personal service and we are confident that we shall do so in this case. Our aim is to agree objectives with you at the outset and achieve those objectives. In cases where this is not possible an explanation will be given to you. We will seek to communicate with you in a prompt and effective manner. You will be kept informed of all developments in your case and copies of all relevant letters will be provided to you. When you telephone the person handling your case will take the call if possible. You will appreciate that this will not always be feasible and then the relevant secretary/assistant will speak to you.
Our charges will be calculated on the basis of the time spent dealing with this matter. Our charging rates (excluding VAT) are as follows: Directors - £170.00 per hour; Assistant Solicitors, Legal Executives & Executives - £150.00 per hour; Legal Assistants - £120.00 per hour - plus disbursements and expenses. (Disbursements are payments we make on your behalf to others involved in the case). We will notify you of disbursements incurred as we go along. Time spent on your matter includes time on the telephone, reading incoming post, dictating outgoing letters, preparing file notes of meetings, perusing documents, drafting documents, preparing instructions and briefs to Counsel, researching law where necessary, attending conferences with Barristers, attendance at Court, meetings with you, meetings with the other person in your case or other people connected with the case, taking statements from witnesses and so on. Letters and telephone calls are charged at 10% of the hourly rate unless they take longer than 6 minutes in which case they are charged by time spent.

Late Payment of Accounts and Interest: We charge interest at 8% on unpaid accounts from one month after delivery. If you ask to pay by instalments, we will normally charge interest on unpaid balances.

We will estimate how many hours will be required to deal with your matter but will inform you if this estimate changes as your matter proceeds. Alternatively, we may agree a fixed fee with you. We would normally request a payment on account at the beginning of the matter and deliver interim bills to you at regular intervals. We are sure you will understand that in the event of a payment not being made we reserve the right to decline to act and that the full amount for the work done up to date will be charged to you. Payment of bills is requested within 28 days of the date of the invoice. We will charge interest on any late payments.
