GUARDIANSHIP - ESTATE
Planning today. Protecting tomorrow.
A guardianship provides protection for the interests of adults who are disabled or incapacitated. Establishing a guardianship for your loved one helps to ensure your loved one is cared for in the way they need and deserve when they cannot take care of themselves. A guardianship is crucial when your loved one is unable to make decisions concerning personal care or finances due to disability, incapacity, or age. A guardianship can also protect the rights of the disabled or incapacitated person. Whether you are seeking to establish guardianship of your loved one, or you are seeking representation of your loved one in a family law or probate proceeding, our guardianship attorneys can help you through the process to make sure that your loved one is cared for with dignity and respect.
Guardianship for Adults
Whether due to disability or other inability to manage their finances or other aspects of their life, sometimes it becomes necessary for a guardian to be appointed to manage an adult’s finances or ensure he or she is receiving proper care. In such instances, the court can appoint a guardian to ensure the best interests of the disabled or incapacitated adult, known as the “ward,” are being met. The guardian is required to report to the court regarding his or her care of the ward, adding an additional layer of security ensuring the ward’s best interests are being advanced. Our guardianship attorneys can guide you through this process and advise you every step of the way.
