Guardianship
For parents of children with mental disabilities, establishing guardianship is important prior to the child reaching the age of 18. Guardianships are also frequently used by family members of adults who become incapacitated unexpectedly. Many of our clients desire their family members to remain as independent as possible.
Our Wichita guardianship lawyers will help you explore new avenues available to help your parent, child or other family member to lead a fulfilling life while receiving the protection and care he or she needs.
If you or someone else has been appointed as a guardian ad litem for a family member, you probably have many questions. Contact our attorneys to find out what this means for your loved one and your family.
