Helping You With Florida Guardianships
A minor child who inherits money or property may need to have a guardian of the property appointed to oversee these assets. The guardian of the property must file reports and accountings and meet other requirements. The lawyers at our firm have experience representing guardians and assisting them in meeting these requirements.
In addition, an adult who is incapacitated may need to have a legal guardian appointed. The process involves a hearing on a petition for incapacity, an examination by a committee and the filing of several documents.
