Guardianship is a court-supervised process where a person (the guardian) is appointed to make legal, financial, and/or medical decisions for someone who can no longer do so themselves (the ward).
Guardianship may be needed when:
An aging parent is experiencing dementia or Alzheimer's
A child with special needs turns 18 and requires continued legal protection
A vulnerable adult is being financially exploited
There’s a dispute among family members over who should take control
