What Is a Guardianship? 

A guardianship is a legal arrangement in which a court appoints a responsible individual (the guardian) to make decisions on behalf of someone who cannot manage their personal, financial, or medical affairs independently. This process ensures that the individual, known as the ward, is protected and supported.

Types of Guardianships We Handle:

1. Guardianship of a Minor:
   For children whose parents are unable to provide proper care due to unforeseen circumstances.
2. Guardianship of an Adult:
   For adults with disabilities or cognitive impairments who cannot make decisions independently.
3. Temporary or Emergency Guardianship:
   For urgent situations requiring immediate protection.
