Guardianship Law

We have extensive experience in plenary guardianships of a person and their property, or conservatorship of their assets. Our attorney, Mary L. Greenwood, and her knowledgeable paralegal, Linda A. McDermott, represent family members of minors who cannot manage their own affairs and relatives of adults judged incompetent by a probate court. We assist clients in all related matters:

  • Hearings to determine competence
  • Setting up trusts for an adult family member with special needs
  • Arranging trusts or guardianship for a minor who is the beneficiary of a settlement
  • Annual reporting (expenses)
  • Annual accounting (inventory of trust or guardianship assets)
  • Discharge of the guardian at the end of the case (death, age of maturity, or transfer of guardianship)

Brandon Family Law Center, LLC, is dedicated to protecting the rights of legal guardians and assisting in all aspects of their duties. We work closely with clients, retaining experts as necessary, to comply with the stringent reporting and accounting requirements.

Contact a guardianship lawyer who can provide solid advice and compassionate counsel.
