Season 3 Episode 19: The Biggest Issues I See; Capacity and Undue Influence

In this episode, Lidia Vicca explores the two most common issues that arise when people seek to challenge a will in Queensland: testamentary capacity and undue influence.

Lidia explains how lawyers assess whether someone had the legal ability to make a valid will, why dementia does not automatically mean a person lacks capacity, and how courts approach allegations of coercion or manipulation within families.

The episode also highlights why these disputes are becoming increasingly common as Australia’s population ages and family dynamics become more complex.
