We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is an example of a person who is incapacitated?

Someone who experiences a disability later in life may become incapacitated after the onset of an illness or injury. For example, an older adult who develops dementia may become incapacitated once the dementia progresses, such that the individual cannot understand a legal document or make personal decisions.

What are the downsides of guardianship?

The Cons to Guardianship: Loss of Freedoms: Your loved one loses the ability to make decisions for themself. Stigma of Incapability: Potential societal devaluation of your loved one. Non-Transferable: Risks if the guardian passes away. Difficult to Overturn: Once done, its a challenge to reverse.

What is the standard of proof of incapacity to support a guardianship?

The court receives evidence (e.g., testimony, written capacity assessment) at a hearing on whether the individual is incapacitated and in need of a guardiana legal, not medical, finding. The court may grant the petition, modify it, grant fewer powers than requested and may decide who to appoint.

Is guardianship a good thing?

The guardianship provides an excellent forum when there is gridlock between caregivers. It also protects the loved one who should be the main focus of all the parties from being harmed because the caregivers cant get on the same page.

What are the negative effects of guardianship?

If you gain guardianship, your child loses the freedoms he or she would have as an adult. The child will lose the right to handle his or her own finances, make healthcare decisions, choose residency, or make any other decision that the court has given the guardian power to decide.
