Power of Attorney worries,advice please

Not sure how friends' children would feel about taking on such a responsibility, having borne it myself for my late mother and stepfather. It's a big ask.

Unfortunately I don't have friends with children able to help.
Has anyone heard of qualified solicitors known as Lifetime Lawyers ?

When i spoke to a solicitor, he said that everyone who has been granted power of attorney will probably need to consult a solicitor anyway.

Thank you,tanith. I am more worried about surviving and not being able to manage daily financial decisions etc

There is something called a Living Will in which you can give your wishes for health decisions should you become incapacitated. You might might need a solicitors advice to write it but it’s your decisions that will included including a DNR in certain circumstances should you wish.
