If a person is ill with liver failure and experiencing elevated ammonia levels would their mind be considered intact to sign legal documents to change a will?

This very much depends on the level of mind of the person signing the documents at the time,and indeed if it can be proved by an expert [Medical or forensic] that the persons mind was distorted as a result of "elevated ammonia levels in his blood stream" his judgment would have been impaired at the time..therefore in that event the Will would be considered as invalid-or Void.
Liver failure..depends if it was such that again the person signing the Will,at the time was not fully conscious or was aware.If the latter [aware] is to be considered, then liver failure on it's own is not proof of the person not being of sound mind. [Syed Amir]
