The document only works if it is made before it is needed
The two kinds
One for property and finances, one for health and care. They are separate documents and most people need both.
The timing
It must be made while you have capacity. Doing it at forty is unremarkable; doing it after a diagnosis is often too late.
The cost
Registration is about eighty-two pounds per document, or free if you are on a low income. It does not require a solicitor.
