About this episode
An accident and sudden loss of mental capacity might feel far off, until it isn't. If you lose the ability to decide for yourself, who will? Many assume family can step in, but without legal authority, even your closest loved ones may be powerless. That’s why LPA (Lasting Power of Attorney) and ACP (Advance Care Planning) matter. In this episode, lawyer Nureliza Syahidain Binte Effendy breaks down how these legacy planning tools protect your wishes when it counts. Want to take control of your future?
