Tallahassee Guardianship Attorney

Helping You Preserve The Rights of Your Loved Ones

When a loved one is no longer competent to make reasoned decisions on their own, a guardianship provides a legal method of protection. It can be a trying ordeal that requires an attorney who will work diligently to complete the process.

A guardianship is a legal relationship where one person (known as the “guardian”) is given rights and responsibilities for the welfare of another (known as the “ward”). For example, if a relative or close friend is unable to make competent important decisions.

If you need to appoint a guardian for someone, I offer a free consultation on how to form and administer a guardianship. I am also available to represent you in court if necessary.

What are some of the responsibilities of a guardian?

 The guardian may have the following duties:

  • providing food, clothing, shelter and medical care;
  • managing financial matters with authorization from the court;
  • arranging transportation to and from places of activity; and
  • carrying out any other tasks necessary for the well-being of the ward.
