Westfair Legal’s online lasting power of attorney service combines document preparation with practical support after signing: a prepaid tracked return, a final document check and submission to the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG).
For England and Wales, Westfair’s published offer is £88 for one LPA with code Autumn10, against a standard price of £98. Both types for one person cost £165 with the code, or £175 normally. These service prices include VAT; government registration charges are additional.

Government registration fees are additional in every column. Westfair’s offer and standard price are both shown; Which?’s row uses its service guide’s standard starting price, excluding temporary promotions. Farewill covers both LPAs. Hanratty & Co is one named solicitor example, not a market average. “Not stated” means the reviewed page did not establish the feature; it does not mean the provider never offers it.
Co-op’s £120 digital service leaves registration to the customer. Its separate £399 fully advised single-LPA service includes individual legal advice, a signed-document check and provider registration. This illustrates why service tiers need to be compared as well as prices.
Compare the whole service
Westfair’s offer is strongest when the practical steps matter: receiving a printed pack, returning it by tracked post, having signatures checked and letting the provider handle submission. A lower document price does not necessarily cover those same steps. Equally, a fully advised solicitor service can offer individual legal advice beyond an online preparation package.
The table does not rank providers or claim that Westfair is the cheapest. Readers should confirm what their chosen service includes, particularly printing, post-signing checks, registration handling and any extra charges.
The separate government fee
GOV.UK currently lists £92 to register each LPA, with reductions or exemptions for eligible applicants. Registering both types normally means two government fees. Completing a questionnaire or paying a preparation fee does not itself register the documents.
Official guidance distinguishes health and welfare from property and financial affairs LPAs. Their permitted use differs. Readers who need advice on complicated circumstances should seek advice suited to their situation.
