What Is Guardianship?
Guardianship is a court process to legally appoint a person to make medical or financial decisions for another person. While guardianship is sometimes necessary, the process and/or procedures can be very cumbersome. There are many reasons to seek guardianship. Some of the most common include:
- Seeking to obtain guardianship of a person and or the estate of a person with a disability
- Disputes over who has guardianship or the person with a disability has objected to guardianship
- Bringing cross-petitions for guardianship on behalf of family members or others who want to serve as legal guardian
- Creating estate plans for those who are not capable of making sound decisions
- Family dysfunction necessitates court intervention.
