What is a Business LPA?

Keeps operations running if you’re incapacitated — attorneys can step in to make crucial decisions and authorise payments.

💰 Protects Finances
Prevents accounts from being frozen and ensures staff, suppliers and taxes continue to be paid.

🧾 Maintains Day-to-Day Control
Lets an appointed attorney manage paperwork, contracts and operational approvals to keep the business stable.

Why Every Business Owner Needs a Business LPA


Every company relies on its key decision-makers. But if you’re suddenly unable to sign documents, access accounts or make financial calls, your business could grind to a halt — often within days.

💼 Business Continuity at Risk
Without an LPA, staff and partners can’t legally access your accounts or make payments — leading to frozen bank access and stalled operations.

⚖️ Court of Protection Delays
If no LPA is in place, someone must apply to the Court of Protection — an expensive, months-long process that leaves your business vulnerable.

🤝 Protecting Partners and Staff
A Business LPA ensures your company, co-directors, and employees can keep things running smoothly, even if you’re unexpectedly out of action.

Setting up a Business LPA correctly requires careful consideration. Each company structure is different — and choosing the right attorney, instructions and safeguards ensures your business continues to operate exactly as you’d wish.

Why should a business owner have a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)?

If something unexpected stops you from running your business, no one automatically has the authority to make decisions for you. A Business LPA ensures someone you trust can access company accounts, pay staff and suppliers, and keep things operating without costly delays or court involvement.

Who should I choose as my Business Attorney?

Most business owners choose someone who understands the company’s finances and operations. That might be a co-director, a senior employee or a trusted adviser. We guide you through the options so you pick the right person for your business.

What happens if I don’t have a Business LPA in place?

Your family or colleagues may have to apply to the Court of Protection to take control. This can take months, cost thousands, and your business may struggle to operate in the meantime. A Business LPA prevents disruption.

How much does a Business LPA cost?

We offer straightforward, transparent pricing with no surprise fees. Our packages are tailored to different business sizes and structures, and we explain all costs clearly before you go ahead.

How long does the process take?

Once we have your details, we can create your documents quickly and guide you through signing. Registration with the Office of the Public Guardian usually takes several weeks, so the sooner we act, the faster protection is in place.

Can I set up both a personal and a business LPA?

Absolutely. Many clients choose both to safeguard their home life and their business. We can handle everything together to make the process easier and more cost-effective.
