- Why make an LPAThere is a choice. There is no requirement for someone to make a lasting power of attorney. If they wish they may decide not to make one and let the stranger, their doctor, the social worker or the court they may have never met make decisions for them. It's really their choice.
- Types of Lasting Power of AttorneyA Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you the donor to appoint someone you trust to make decisions in the future if you are unable to understand or decide for yourself.

- Disputes
- Civil LitigationIf you’re unhappy with how someone has treated you, a contract which seems unfair, someone’s taken advantage or been unfair to you, come and talk to us about dispute resolution. Let Craybeck Law LLP Civil Litigation Solicitors assist you.
- Community Care LawLocal authorities are required to conduct assessments, provide services and information to vulnerable adults. Mostly this process works well. If it does not a vulnerable adult may be exposed to risk or abuse. We can assist families to resolve these issues.
- Negligence ClaimsProfessionals and organisations are required to work with reasonable skill, care and diligence on behalf of the people who engage them or they care for. If the work of professionals, local authorities, the NHS or other similar bodies falls below the expected standard of reasonable care or service then negligence might have arisen. Making a claim against someone or an organisation necessitates obtaining sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the person or organisation was either at fault, acted inappropriately, did or did not do something which they were required to do (breach of contract), gave an impression about something which was incorrect or breached a statutory duty.
- Civil MediationsMediation is where a settlement is agreed between parties. Facilitated by the mediator, the parties themselves consider what options exist to resolve their dispute and what is best for them both.
- Elder MediationMediation with vulnerable adults is nothing new. What is new is where one party lacks mental capacity.
