Guardianship
Protecting the Interests of Your Loved Ones
Guardianship is a legal process that allows a court-appointed individual, known as a guardian, to make decisions on behalf of another person, known as a ward, who is unable to make decisions for themselves. This may be due to a physical or mental impairment, developmental disability, or age. In Florida, guardianship is governed by the Florida Statutes and is a serious matter that requires the guidance of an experienced attorney.
