How is a guardian appointed?A guardian is appointed through a legal process in which a court evaluates the needs of the person who requires assistance. This involves filing a petition, providing evidence that guardianship is necessary, and sometimes attending a hearing. Once the court is convinced that guardianship is required, it formally appoints a qualified individual as the guardian.
-
What is guardianship?Guardianship is a legal arrangement where a person is appointed to care for and make decisions on behalf of another individual who is unable to do so, typically due to age, incapacity, or disability. The guardian is responsible for the well-being, personal affairs, and sometimes the financial matters of the person in their care, known as the ward.
-
What are the responsibilities of a guardian?Guardians are responsible for managing and protecting the well-being of the ward. This can include making decisions regarding healthcare, living arrangements, and, in some cases, financial matters. The extent of these responsibilities can vary, and in some situations, a separate conservator may handle financial affairs while the guardian manages personal and healthcare decisions.
-
What is the difference between guardianship and custody?Guardianship involves the legal authority to make decisions for another person concerning their personal and, sometimes, financial well-being. Custody, on the other hand, generally refers to the care and control of a child, typically within the context of family law cases like divorce or separation. Custody may not grant the same breadth of decision-making power as guardianship.
