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.

Webinar: Driving Excellence in Your Business & Client Services: Diversity, Inclusion, and Interruption of Implicit Bias and the Effective Strategies for Interviewing, Hiring, and On-boarding

This webinar is part 1 of the 2-part series. Although there has been a lot of dialogue on implicit and unconscious bias, unpacking this concept to understand the myriad of “mental shortcuts” that we take that impact how we work with and value others is critical to the diversity and inclusion journey of any organization.
