Counselling and a court case.

endofrainbow · 2023-10-20 13:09:59

If someone was receiving counselling for depression and other anxiety issues and were in the midst of a family legal battle (property), could it be used against them as in, they weren't in a fit state of mind when decisions were being made about the property? No will involved. Hypothetical scenario.

No. Counselling isn't a medical intervention, only a qualified medical professional can declare someone of unsound mind.
