Capacity issues are at the core of many trust and estate disputes.  There are different types of capacity to consider when assessing an individual’s ability to make a certain decision or perform a given task, whether it be entering into a contract, making a will, managing a complex trust, or making day-to-day decisions concerning one’s financial affairs or self-care.  This presentation will cover the standards for assessing capacity, and provide an overview of statutory authority and case law relevant to such issues.
