What is Guardianship?
When an individual needs further care on his or her behalf, a Guardianship is needed as a protective agreement designated through the court system. Furthermore, Guardianships are established on behalf of adults who have lost mental capacity due to host of reasons such as metal illnesses.
Guardianship entails two types: Guardian of the Person & Guardian of the Property. The first involves making personal decisions on behalf of a mentally incapacitated individual. The second usually involves decisions relating to financial matters. More often than not, the spouse will become a Guardian, although any adult child is able to.
