Houston and Fort Worth Guardianship Litigation and Administration Attorneys
Experienced Guardianship Representation in Texas
Guardians take care of a child’s needs, including shelter, education, and medical care. A guardian may also take part in the management of a child’s financial assets. The human responsibility of guardianship will often cross paths with the legal parameters of the role.
If your family is considering guardianship or has questions about your status as a guardian, attorneys Keith Morris & Stacy Kelly can assist with the following scenarios:
Understanding Guardianship for Minors in Texas
Guardianship for minors is designed to protect children under 18 from neglect, abuse, or exploitation. In Texas, becoming a legal guardian involves a court process that requires clear evidence demonstrating the child’s need for a guardian and the applicant’s suitability to serve in this role.
This process isn’t automatic or straightforward. The court examines all relevant factors, and applications can be denied if it’s determined the minor can care for themselves. Having a knowledgeable attorney by your side ensures your family stays informed and prepared for every step. Attorneys Keith Morris and Stacy Kelly provide detailed support throughout the application and approval process, helping you avoid potential setbacks.
Guardianship for Incapacitated Adults
Guardianship for incapacitated individuals protects adults unable to care for themselves due to physical or mental limitations. This legal process involves more than proving the applicant’s relationship to the individual—it requires detailed documentation and responses to court inquiries about your life and the needs of the person in question.
Attorneys Keith Morris and Stacy Kelly can help you navigate this intricate process, ensuring you meet the state’s legal requirements and avoid unnecessary delays.
Addressing Guardian Misconduct
Guardians hold significant responsibility for those under their care, but unfortunately, this position can sometimes be misused. Abusive or negligent guardians can harm the physical, emotional, or financial well-being of their wards.
If you or a loved one has been exploited or mistreated by a guardian, it’s crucial to act swiftly. Attorneys Keith Morris and Stacy Kelly can help you understand your options, including filing a lawsuit to hold the guardian accountable and protect the vulnerable individual. Abuse in any form is unacceptable and should not go unaddressed.
Navigating Conservatorship and Guardianship in Texas
Both conservatorships and guardianships are legal arrangements ordered by the court to protect individuals unable to make decisions independently. These measures are often initiated by family members to ensure their loved one’s needs are met. Deciding whether to pursue guardianship or conservatorship depends on the unique circumstances of your situation.
Attorneys Keith Morris and Stacy Kelly can help you evaluate the best course of action and guide you through the process to ensure your loved one receives the necessary care and protection.
