GUARDIANSHIPS AND CONSERVATORSHIPS
Although it may be unexpected, you may find yourself one day caring for your grandchildren, parents, nieces or nephews because they may be unable to care for themselves. Conversely, you may want to challenge an existing custody arrangement of a child because you believe that the parent or guardian is unfit to care for the child. Kerstein, Coren & Lichtenstein represents parents, siblings and other relatives who seek to obtain guardianship or conservatorship of a loved one.
Before applying it is important to remember that being a guardian or conservator involves a variety of responsibilities. These responsibilities may include:
- Making Health Care and End-Of-Life Decisions.
- Making Housing Arrangements.
- Making Education Decisions.
- Paying Living and other Expenses.
- Making Investment Decisions.
If you are a parent, you may nominate a guardian or conservator for your child. Our attorneys can help you understand your rights and responsibilities as you make these important decisions. We help our clients make appropriate decisions under these difficult circumstances. Having to deal with a loved one who can no longer care for him or herself can be an extremely emotional and contentious process. Our experienced attorneys will help you achieve the best possible outcome for you and your loved ones.
