Lasting Power of Attorney

While you may not know what the future holds, we can help you better prepare for it with a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA).

The LPA is a legal document that lets you entrust important life decisions to a trusted person, in the event if you lose the mental capacity to manage your own affairs. It can also alleviate stress and difficulties faced by your loved ones who may otherwise need to apply for a Deputyship order, which will be more costly and time consuming.

Certificate Issuer Services for LPA Form 1

All-inclusive flat fee: SGD 50

We offer certificate issuer services for LPA Form 1, which is the standard version donors use to grant donees general powers on personal welfare and property & affairs matters with basic restrictions.

After choosing your donee(s) and the decision powers to grant them, you may make an appointment with our lawyer as the Certificate Issuer. Clients will then have to mail the completed form to the Office of the Public Guardian. You may find more information on how to make an LPA here.

Terms and conditions

The Certificate Issuer fee excludes any application fee charged by the Office of the Public Guardian. Currently, the fee waiver for LPA Form 1 made by Singapore Citizens has been extended to 31 March 2023.
