Protecting Your Legal Rights

Summary

Being previously declared unfit doesnt necessarily mean youll be considered incompetent now. If youre self-reliant and can manage your affairs, its unlikely your aunt could declare you incompetent. If theres a dispute, a court would decide based on evidence. Consider consulting a local attorney to secure your rights.
