Michigan Legal Guardian Lawyer
Minor children who are temporarily displaced from parents may need a temporary guardian. When a child is in danger or lacks an effective caregiver, it may be in their best interests for a relative or other loved one to take over for the parents and be granted guardianship. This allows another adult to care for the child and make major decisions that relate to their schooling and medical care.
If you are in a situation where you need to become a guardian for your loved one, or you need to appoint a guardian for your child, our experienced Howell guardianship attorney Kathryn M. Wayne-Spindler, can help. She has fifteen years of experience, helping people just like you establish guardianships and conservatorships. Let us do the worrying, so you can concentrate on your life and your family.
Michigan law allows the appointment of a guardian if it finds that an individual is unable to provide continuing care and supervision. Many times this happens when:
- Parents go to jail or rehab for a drug or alcohol problems
- You are the child of an elderly person and your parent is not able to handle their own medical or personal issues any longer
Guardianships provide the loving and nurturing care that children need when their parents are incapable of providing it. Sound estate planning can often avoid the difficulties and expense involved in guardianship proceedings.
