A Guardianship gives an individual the legal authority to have custody of, protect and/or manage the assets and property of another. Guardianships come in many forms. A guardianship can be over a person, estate or both. It can also be limited, emergency, temporary or indefinite.
A guardianship can be necessary for a minor child if the parents are unable to provide care for the child or the child has inherited a significant sum of money and it is necessary for someone other than the parent to manage those funds. A guardianship can also become necessary in the case of an elderly individual who can no longer manage his or her affairs.
