Abstract

This chapter introduces the doctrine of therapeutic jurisprudence as an innovative lens through which to explore capacity assessments in the testamentary and substitute decision-making context. The attraction of therapeutic jurisprudence is the doctrine’s focus on the law and legal actors not having a negative, or anti-therapeutic, impact on the lives of people who come into contact with legal systems and processes. The doctrine itself is explained in the chapter, including the definitional difficulties which have been identified. Application of the doctrine’s principles relevant to the context specific assessment of capacity are then undertaken. Exploring the assessment of capacity through a novel lens such as therapeutic jurisprudence facilitates the development of potential new outcomes, ultimately, with a view to progressing the capacity assessment dialogue. Therapeutic jurisprudence is not without its critics and these critiques are also discussed in determining the applicability of these principles to the estate planning setting.
