Wills for people with cognitive impairment
Join lawyer Caroline Cavanagh as she explains the legal and practical issues involved when a person with cognitive impairment is unable to make their own Will.
For families operating a family-governed “service for one”, estate planning can be an important part of securing the long-term future of the person you support. Understanding the available options can help protect assets, support future decision-making arrangements, and contribute to the sustainability of the supports and safeguards you have worked hard to build.
Topics covered include:
- What is an estate? What does it contain and what does a Will do?
- Who can write a Will?
- Who would not pass the legal capacity threshold to write their own Will?
- Who assesses legal capacity?
- The intestacy rules for deceased estates where no Will is in place
- Who manages an estate when no Will is left (the priority of next of kin)
- Who can make a claim for further provision from an estate
- The process and costs of having a Will made for a person with cognitive impairment
- What kind of outcomes you might expect from a Court Will application.
