What You Should Know About Contested Guardianship Disputes
A contested guardianship occurs when there is a disagreement regarding the appointment or actions of a guardian. Guardians have been granted legal authority to care for another person, often a minor child or an adult unable to make decisions independently. Disputes can arise over who should be appointed or how the guardian manages their responsibilities.
These cases may intersect with divorce or estate law in family law, further complicating the dynamics. A guardianship attorney plays a crucial role in advocating for your position, ensuring that the rights of the individual needing care are prioritized while addressing family concerns.
