No personal experience but I've worked in a similar area in the past and probably still know a few people who handle this stuff.
I honestly don't think, provided there's no prospect of family disagreement over the document or your suitability as attorney, that there's much more to it than you suggest.

I'm sure there are plenty of solicitors willing to do the work for you at £££/hour if you need help.
