Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
Create and organise your Lasting Power of Attorney with confidence. Storey guides you through each step — clearly, calmly, and at your own pace.
Two types of LPA — both covered
With Storey, you can create both types of UK Lasting Power of Attorney, using guided forms with plain-English explanations throughout.
Health & Welfare LPA
Covers decisions about medical care, treatment, daily routine, and where you live — only used if you’re unable to decide for yourself.
Property & Financial Affairs LPA
Covers finances such as bank accounts, bills, pensions, and property — and can be used with your permission if needed.
Guided step by step
Storey walks you through each part of your LPA with structured forms, clear explanations, and helpful prompts along the way.
- Certificate Provider Choose the person who confirms you understand the LPA and are not under pressure.
- Attorneys Add the people you trust to act on your behalf.
- People to notify Optionally list people who should be informed when the LPA is registered.
- Instructions & preferences Add guidance to help your attorneys understand your wishes.
People added to your LPAs can be selected directly from your Important Contacts, keeping everything consistent and connected.
Generate official UK documents
Once you’ve completed your LPA, Storey generates the official documents using the approved UK government format.
Your information is placed directly into the official Office of the Public Guardian LPA forms, ready to download and print.
Saved securely
Generated LPAs are stored in your account under Accounts + Assets → Important Documents, so they’re always easy to find.
Clear next steps
We automatically add notes explaining exactly what to do next, including signing, witnessing, and registration.
Registering your Power of Attorney
After downloading and printing your completed LPA, follow the steps below to ensure it is correctly registered and legally valid.
Before posting your application:
- Carefully review all pages to ensure every field is completed accurately.
- As the Donor, sign and have witnessed Sections 9 and 15.
- For a Health & Welfare LPA, also sign Section 5.
- The Certificate Provider must sign Section 10.
- All Attorneys must sign and have witnessed Section 11.
- In Section 14, specify how you will pay the £82 application fee.
Important information
The Donor must always sign first, followed by the Certificate Provider, and finally the Attorneys. This order is essential for validity.
Witnesses must be aged 18 or over. A Donor cannot witness an Attorney’s signature, and an Attorney cannot witness the Donor’s signature.
