Power of Attorney IOM provides specialist legal support for enduring powers of attorney, registration of existing enduring powers and Mental Health Receivership matters on the Isle of Man. The practice is led by Nigel Shimmin, a former long-serving local Police Inspector and senior paralegal, whose background includes direct experience managing the affairs of vulnerable people and delivering training to local care home managers.

The practice has developed a reputation for practical, efficient resolution of capacity and financial-authority issues, with client testimonials emphasising prompt turnaround, clear explanation of processes and a compassionate approach in difficult circumstances. Services are offered with transparent, competitive fixed fees designed to reduce barrier to access for Isle of Man residents and non-residents with Manx assets.

Client service is focused on tailored, accessible delivery - including home visits and out-of-hours appointments where required - and hands-on management of court registration and liaison with financial institutions. Work is handled with attention to evidential requirements for capacity assessments and procedural compliance with Isle of Man court processes to protect donors and appointed attorneys.
