Companies and organisations can use this online service to check who the attorneys are on a valid lasting power of attorney (LPA).

You can only use this service for LPAs registered on or after 1 January 2016 and in England or Wales.

What you鈥檒l get

You get a one page summary of the LPA which includes:

• if it鈥檚 still valid and registered
• the donor鈥檚 name, address and date of birth
• the attorneys鈥� names, addresses and dates of birth
• how decisions are made by the attorneys
• the donor鈥檚 restrictions and conditions (sometimes known as 鈥榠nstructions and preferences鈥�)

You can also download a copy of the LPA summary as a PDF.

Before you start

To view the LPA summary, you鈥檒l need the attorney or donor to generate an access code online for you.

An access code has 13 characters and starts with V. You鈥檒l need a different access code to view each health and welfare or property and finance LPA.听听

If the attorney does not have an access code

If the LPA was registered before 1 January 2016, the attorney or donor cannot generate an access code. They will need to show you the registered paper LPA or a certified copy of it instead.
