Someone must act as your certificate provider. Without this the Power cannot be registered or used. This is normally your legal professional or GP as they are competent to make the judgements necessary to give the certificate.

If we are not appointed as Attorneys, we can act as Certificate Provider but, in order to fulfil the requirements of the document itself, we will need to see you alone at some point, even though you are with your spouse/civil partner/partner.

If we agree to act as Attorney, we cannot act in the role of Certificate Provider, but will supply you with a list of appropriately qualified local solicitors any one of whom could fulfil this role or we will liaise with your GP where appropriate and with your consent.
