3 Things to Know About Guardianship
Did you know in cases of illness, injury, or other means, anyone might need an appointed guardian if they become mentally incapacitated? In such cases, without proper estate planning in place (or with insufficient planning), the court process in probate court must appoint a guardian.
Obtaining guardianship can be challenging and expensive. First, you’d need to file a guardianship petition in court and request the court declare the incapacitated person incompetent. A petition and process like this can spark heated disputes between family members and friends. If no one had been appointed through an estate plan, essentially anyone can claim they'd be best suited for the role.
