    Default Autistic adult and power of attorney

    Hello, I've been asked by my sister to enquire on legal issues concerning her severely autistic son Joseph (my nephew) who has just turned 18 and is now classed as an adult.

    She has been told that she needs to be granted power of attorneyicon to legally handle his financial affairs etc as he will be going into permanent residence soon.

    Is this advice correct or can it be sorted without PoA, as she's discovered it will cost ~£500 to have a solicitor arrange that?

    A friend of hers suggested PoA isn't required - all she needs to do is open a joint account.

    This doesn't sound right to me, can anyone please advise?
