This seminar focuses on one of the most critical aspects of wills and estates practice: understanding the distinct types of legal capacity required to make a valid will.
This in‑depth session demystifies the three key forms of capacity relevant to will‑making and estate planning:
-
Testamentary Capacity
-
General Decision‑Making Capacity
-
Statutory Capacity
Through expert‑led discussion and practical guidance, viewers gain clarity on how each type of capacity operated, when it applied, and how to navigate common challenges in practice.
