My mum has asked me to sort out LPA's for both her finance and health. Will be administered jointly by myself and my sister. In addition to the application fees (£82 per LPA) our solicitor wants £550 plus vat for doing it. They are not doing face to face appointments so will all be done by email and zoom.
I’ve looked upon the .Gov website and it seems extremely straight forward. Just names, addresses etc and any special instructions - (will have to talk to my mum first to see if she has any).
She won’t mind paying for the solicitor if needed but looking at it, it seems that they will just be asking the same questions and filling the same form in and charging her £660 for the privilege. Has anyone on here done this? Is it as straightforward as it seems?
