When a loved one is no longer able to make sound decisions due to age, illness, or incapacity, establishing a guardianship or conservatorship can provide the legal structure needed to protect their well-being and financial affairs. I assist families with uncontested protective proceedings - cases where all parties agree on the need for a guardian or conservator and who should serve in that role.
A guardianship grants legal authority to make personal and healthcare decisions on behalf of an individual who is unable to care for themselves.
A conservatorship allows someome to manage an incapacitated person's financial matters and property.
I guide clients through the court process to ensure that the necessary legal protections are in place with as little stress and conflict as possible. My focus is on helping families navigate these situations efficiently and respectfully.
