Guardianship is a legal process in which a court appoints an individual (the guardian) to make decisions on behalf of someone who is unable to manage their affairs (the ward). This may include decisions about healthcare, finances, and living arrangements. An elder law attorney can help you establish a guardianship if necessary or explore alternatives, such as a Power of Attorney, to avoid the need for court intervention.
