      How to determine someone’s decision-making capacity?

      Determining a person’s capacity to make decisions is complex and has significant consequences for the individual and their family. If you’re concerned about a loved one’s decision-making capacity, consider having it assessed by a neuropsychologist. Capacity can relate to making or changing a Will, appointing an attorney under an Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA), or appointing a Medical Treatment Decision Maker (MTDM) for medical decisions.


      What is Probate and do I need it?

      Probate is the legal process of validating a Will and confirming the authority of the executor to administer the estate. If you’re unsure whether you need probate, consult with legal experts like Rigby Cooke Lawyers.
