<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Not just a book about the what and how, this read first sets out the importance of LPA in Singapore context, why it is needed and the dire consequences of not having one. It also dispels myths and misconceptions about LPAs.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Since 2010, Singapore citizens and permanent residents have been encouraged to utilise the Lasting Power of Attorney, otherwise known as the LPA, to protect their interests but many in Singapore are still uncertain or unaware about it. Unfortunately, less than 2% of Singaporeans have done an LPA. This book seeks to encourage more people to do the LPA by explaining in clear terms how you can complete the LPA Form 1. Not just a book about the what and how, it first sets out its importance, why it is needed and the dire consequences of not having one. It also dispels myths and misconceptions about LPAs. The book provides interesting cases studies of real-life situations to illustrate the function of the LPA and contains references to other countries and how the LPA and equivalents operate in those jurisdictions.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An LPA is an expression of our ideals and preferences in what may be our last years of life. It spurs us to question how we would like to live, how our affairs should be managed, if we can no longer think for ourselves. ... This book cuts through legal jargon to make the LPA understandable and accessible to everyone."
