When most people hear the term guardianship, they automatically think of the process in relation to minors. However, it is just as important to have a guardianship plan in place for your elderly loved ones. Hiring an attorney skilled in guardianship matters is an essential part of this undertaking. In these cases, there are two different kinds of guardianship.
Types of Guardianship
The first is guardianship of a person. This responsibility entails making medical decisions as well as aiding in residences and related matters. The second is guardianship of an estate. This involves managing property in the event that the estate owner is unable to do so themselves.
Whether you are faced with one or both of the above, guardianship is an important responsibility. Unfortunately, it can also easily be taken advantage of. Read more about how to protect yourself and your loved ones in this Dallas News article.
