Guardianship
Definition:
Guardianships are set up to protect the rights of individuals who are incapable of making decisions or taking care of themselves. Guardianships are typically used for children without parents, adults with developmental disabilities and older adults with health problems.Consequences of Guardianship:
Guardianships for incapacitated adults and the elderly are typically aimed at avoiding financial exploitation. Elderly people can be manipulated, therefore having a guardian to make financial, medical, voting, employment, gift giving or marriage decisions for them can eradicate this concern.What a Lawyer can do for you:
