[QUOTE="cd667, post: 2293892, member: 528551"] ... so 1 in 10 didn't? I wouldn't fancy those odds. Besides, that's only one of the problems people find when they write their own LPAs. It is possible to register an LPA without issue but find it doesn't work as you intended later on. The classic problem is people appointing several attorneys and stipulating that they have to act jointly. If one of them dies or loses capacity, the LPA is useless because they can't all agree. I could think of others(I'm great at parties!). Actually, there are books about some of the other issues. I'll send a reading list if you're interested. For the amount of money it costs to get a professional to write an LPA for you (and cover you with their PI if it goes wrong), I don't know why you'd take the risk to do it yourself. Well, [I]you would[/I], obviously. But that's your choice. :) [/QUOTE]
