We expect the timescale for preparation of your Power of Attorney(s) to be in the region of two to four weeks from the time of the first appointment, but if the matter is more complex, it may take more time. We will advise you of the likely timescale when we have confirmed your instructions.
The documents may need to be sent to your Attorneys if they cannot come to the office to sign them and this may take time.
However, the signed documents must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) to be valid. The OPG are currently taking between three and five months to process and return the registered documents.
