If you want to choose someone to make decisions on your health and welfare when you cannot, then yes. That way, you can pick someone you trust and explain to them any preferences you have so that if the day comes when you cannot make those decisions yourself, they have the legal authority to do so on your behalf.
Is a health and welfare power of attorney necessary?
Client feedback
Winston's location is easy for me to get to & the off-road parking is much appreciated. Ms Emily Spencer handled the matter of my Will. Emily was professional, courteous and offered much appropriate advice. Overall, a somewhat sombre matter was dealt with to my full satisfaction.
David
Very good service at reasonable rates. They completed a Deed of Variation for me and I will certainly use them again for any further legal work.
Andrew
Very efficient and responsive. I look forward to continuing our relationship.

Emily at Winston Solicitors Moortown has been dealing with probate for my deceased mother.There were some serious problems we had to deal with, regarding her will. Emily was brilliant she was always quick to reply to our emails. She was able to help us negotiate a difficult situation. I'd recommend using her for wills and probate
