A guardianship is a legal proceeding in which a guardian is appointed to exercise the legal rights of an incapacitated person or in the case of a minor who has received funds. A guardian is a surrogate decision-maker appointed by the court to make either personal and/or financial decisions for a minor or for an adult with mental or physical disabilities. After adjudication, the subject of the guardianship is termed a “ward.” Irama Valdes, P.A. assists individuals with three types of Guardianships:
- Minor Guardianship
- Incapacitated Adult
- Approval of Minor Settlement
The guardianship process is not an easy one, but with the right tools and representation, this overwhelming event can be something manageable.
