Frequently Asked Questions

A Deed of Revocation is a legal document used to formally cancel or revoke a previously granted Power of Attorney. It ensures that the appointed attorney no longer has the authority to act on behalf of the Donor.

You can use a Deed of Revocation at any time to terminate an Ordinary Power of Attorney, an Enduring Power of Attorney before its registration, or a Lasting Power of Attorney while the Donor still has mental capacity.

While it is not legally required to have a lawyer, consulting one is advisable to ensure that the document is completed correctly and meets all legal requirements.

Once the Deed of Revocation is executed, it is recommended to notify the previous attorney and any relevant institutions or parties that the Power of Attorney has been revoked.

No, if you are no longer mentally capable, you cannot revoke a Power of Attorney. It is essential to revoke it while you still have the mental capacity to make such decisions.

This Deed of Revocation is specifically suitable for use in England and Wales. Different jurisdictions may have different requirements or forms for revocation.

If you have lost the original Power of Attorney document, you can still complete a Deed of Revocation. However, it is advisable to inform the attorney and possibly seek legal advice on how to proceed.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who have previously granted a Power of Attorney may find it necessary to revoke it due to changes in their personal circumstances or relationships. For instance, if the appointed attorney is no longer trusted or available, revoking the Power of Attorney ensures that the individual's interests are protected.
  • Situations requiring the termination of an Enduring Power of Attorney often arise when the Donor's mental capacity is still intact but they wish to change their designated attorney. This form allows the Donor to take control and appoint someone new, reflecting their current wishes and needs.
  • For those who have established a Lasting Power of Attorney but later decide to manage their affairs independently, this Deed of Revocation serves as a formal way to cancel the arrangement. It is crucial for maintaining autonomy over personal and financial decisions.
  • In cases where the Power of Attorney was granted under duress or without full understanding, revocation is essential to rectify the situation. This Deed allows individuals to reclaim their rights and ensure that their decisions are made freely and voluntarily.
  • Families dealing with the complexities of a loved one's health may need to revoke a Power of Attorney if the appointed attorney is unable to fulfill their duties. This ensures that a more suitable person can be appointed to make critical decisions on behalf of the Donor.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate if the Donor has lost mental capacity and cannot make decisions regarding their affairs. In such cases, a court-appointed guardian or deputy may be required instead.
  • – If the Power of Attorney has already been executed and is currently in effect, revocation may not be possible without the consent of the attorney unless certain conditions are met.
  • – In situations where the Power of Attorney was granted as part of a legal settlement or court order, revoking it may require additional legal processes and cannot be done unilaterally.
  • – Individuals should avoid using this form if they are unsure about the legal implications of revoking a Power of Attorney, as it may lead to unintended consequences regarding their affairs.
