Power of Attorney
6 Answers
A relative has developed alzheimers at an alarming rate and is now completely lost it, to be frank.
How does one gain power of attorney over someone's estate? I have looked on Direct Gov and Public Guardian, but it all appears to be about a person appointing an attorney BEFORE they are non compus mentus.
Does anyone know the best site we can use to look up the info on before going to a solicitor?
Thanks,
Cal

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Contact The Pension Service or (JCP if under 60yrs)to become an appointee for benefit purposes ie retirement pension. It doesn't cost anything, somebody will arrange a visit to confirm that the person is unable to deal with their own affairs and complete a form with whoever is willing to be responsible.
