Ensuring the Vulnerable Receive Proper Care
When someone you love is unable to care for himself or herself, it may be necessary for you to step in and provide assistance. However, without a court's permission, you do not possess the authority to make medical or financial decisions. In order to obtain court approval, you must file for guardianship or conservatorship.
At Motin Law Office, P.A., we aim to get guardians and conservators appointed for people who need them, as well as help guardians and conservators properly carry out their duties. We work with individuals and families in Elk River, Minnesota, and the nearby areas.
What Does Guardianship or Conservatorship Involve?
A guardian is a court-appointed individual who is responsible for an incapacitated person's daily needs and welfare. This includes providing for the vulnerable individual's meals, housing, transportation and medical treatment. A conservator has legal authority to control the incapacitated person's finances.
Our lawyers are experienced in dealing with all aspects of guardianship and conservatorship issues. As your attorneys, we will:
- Complete the legal paperwork
- Describe your obligations
- Answer your questions about how to comply with the law
Many of our clients are parents of children over age 18 who need special care, as well as adult children who wish to assist aging parents suffering from dementia, strokes and other illnesses. Regardless of your specific situation, we will work with you to get your loved one the necessary care.
