Christa Wittenberg authored an article entitled “Testamentary Capacity: A Sliding-Scale Approach,” which appeared in the September issue of Wisconsin Lawyer magazine. The article discusses the complex estate planning issues and disputes that can arise in families with loved ones affected by dementia or diminished mental capacity. Given increasing life expectancies and the relative frequency with which these issues can arise, this is a situation that many people either have faced or will face in their lifetimes. When these issues arise, it is important to seek good legal advice promptly.
