About Power of Attorney Online
Power of Attorney Online was founded in 2024 with a simple but ambitious mission: to make one of the most important legal tasks in life both accessible and affordable. Too often, people delay creating a Lasting Power of Attorney because they believe the process is complex, costly and something to worry about in later life. This hesitation leads to stress and significant legal barriers for families when support is needed most.
Our platform provides a guided digital service that takes users through the process of setting up a Lasting Power of Attorney step by step. We use clear, jargon free language, intuitive design and built in checks to prevent the errors that commonly cause 50,000 LPA rejections a year. What once took weeks of appointments with solicitors can now be completed online in just 15 minutes, with peace of mind that the application is legally correct.
The journey has not been without challenges. One of the first hurdles we faced was trust. Asking people to prepare such a sensitive legal document online required a service that felt both highly secure and approachable. We invested heavily in clear customer communication, robust data security and responsive support channels. Another challenge was simplifying a legal process that is often wrapped in intimidating detail. Our team worked closely with legal experts and everyday families to test, refine and adapt our forms until they became both compliant and user friendly.
In just our first couple of years, Power of Attorney Online has helped people across England and Wales complete their documents with confidence. More than that, we have started to change public attitudes toward life planning. Influencers, financial advisors and campaigners such as Martin Lewis have raised awareness of the importance of planning early, and our service offers the scalable, digital solution that meets this growing demand.
The impact on the SaaS industry has been significant. We have shown that cloud based platforms can succeed in areas traditionally dominated by face to face professional services. Legal services have long been viewed as resistant to digital disruption, yet our growth proves that people are ready to adopt well designed SaaS alternatives when they save both time and money. Our success demonstrates the potential for SaaS to reshape even highly regulated sectors by combining compliance with simplicity.
Looking forward, we are committed to expanding our services and reaching more families across the UK. By continuing to lower the barriers to essential legal protection, we aim to set a new standard for how SaaS platforms can deliver meaningful impact in society.
Power of Attorney Online is more than a legal tech service. It is a new model of trust, accessibility and digital innovation that highlights the true potential of SaaS.
