If someone loses mental capacity without a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) in place, a friend or family member can apply to the Court of Protection to make decisions on their behalf. A professional can also be appointed instead of a friend / relative.
The application can be very time-consuming; there can also be a daunting amount of paperwork. However, our team is on hand to guide you through the whole process and assist with any ongoing requirements.
