Act Quickly to Protect Your Loved One
The protected person is often in a vulnerable position. They are susceptible to financial manipulation by others, or they may become hospitalized without the family's knowledge. A properly filed guardianship can:
- Establish a court-appointed legal guardian to watch over the protected person's finances, property and health care.
- Give the guardian the authority to pay the protected person's bills and see that they take their medications and eat properly.
- Allow the guardian to make decisions that are in the best interest of the protected person.
We will draft the petition for guardianship and file it along with all the accompanying documents. We will accompany you to the appointment hearing and see that the annual financial accounting is timely filed with the court.
