Do I need a solicitor for an LPA in Chester?
No, you don't need a solicitor to create a Lasting Power of Attorney in Chester or anywhere in England and Wales. Our online service guides you through the entire process, and our documents are fully compliant with Office of the Public Guardian requirements. You'll need a witness to sign, but this can be any independent adult.

Yes! Our online LPA service is available to all residents of Chester, Cheshire, and throughout England and Wales. You can complete the entire process from home without visiting a solicitor's office. We've helped thousands of North West families create their LPAs.
What happens if I don't have an LPA in Chester?
If you lose mental capacity without an LPA, your family will need to apply to the Court of Protection for deputyship. This process costs £3,000+ in legal fees, takes 6-12 months, and the court decides who manages your affairs - not you. Creating an LPA now gives you control over who makes decisions for you.
