Adult and Minor Guardianships

Doyle Law, LLC offers compassionate, informed, and supportive legal representation to navigate the complexities of applying for guardianship of an adult’s person and/or property, as well as a minor’s property when necessary. We also provide assistance with the detailed administration of guardianships and aim to educate our clients about the necessary filings, enabling them to manage the guardianship independently when prepared.

Guardianships are typically required in these situations:

  • An individual with disabilities, who cannot make their own healthcare and financial decisions, turns 18, necessitating their caregiver to undertake the formal guardianship process to continue making such decisions legally.
  • When an individual is incapacitated due to illness or injury and lacks a valid durable power of attorney or healthcare directive, or if there is no living or capable agent to act on their behalf.
  • A minor who inherits real property not within a testamentary or revocable trust, and the property must be sold.
