"After my Mom passed away and her house was foreclosed on, Ryan of Conscious Dealz helped me get the excess funds from the foreclosure."

He told me the amount I would receive at the beginning of the process. He also told me that I would never have to step inside of a court room, which I didn’t want to due to the complex challenges of probate court. Ryan and his team worked very hard for me.

Guardianship for the Incapacitated in Texas

Guardianship for the incapacitated in Texas refers to the legal process used to protect adults who are unable to care for themselves. A guardian is a court-appointed individual, or sometimes an entity such as a state agency, who makes decisions on the incapacitated person’s behalf.

Setting up a guardianship for the incapacitated in Texas is something a guardianship attorney can help with. We understand how daunting the guardianship process can be, for both parties. You may not be sure how everything works and what legal rights exist for the guardian and the person who is incapacitated. Here is a look at some of the specifics and how they pertain to guardianship issues.

The Guardianship Process

There is an application that must be filled out for guardianship. This includes simple information about both parties (name, age, sex, etc.). In addition to that, there are specific questions that have to be answered. For example, the relationship between the two parties and the nature of the incapacity. This means that you will have to write on the application about what limitations the person has and issues they may have in taking care of themselves on a day-to-day basis.

The important thing is to also outline how the individual in question will be taken care of. The person who is taking guardianship for the incapacitated in Texas needs to be in control of their own life. They need to demonstrate that they have the time and resources to take care of someone else. If they will not be home all the time, they need to highlight that they will appoint a home care nurse or other care to help manage the situation.

If you have questions about guardianship of the incapacitated in Texas, contact Your Texas Probate Attorneys, Attorneys at Law at (844) 878-0700 in Houston and (817) 532-6797 in Fort Worth today.

A wide range of legal problems can arise in business transactions and fiduciary relationships. While the types of disputes can vary, one element remains the same – having an attorney who can untangle the legal mess is vital to a successful outcome.

Most commercial and fiduciary litigation is resolved before the issue reaches a trial so having an attorney who is skilled at the negotiation table as well as in a courtroom is vital. From breach of business contract to breach of fiduciary duty by a trustee, our firm will dedicate the time and resources needed to see you through your legal issues.

Estate planning involves using legal methods to ensure that your assets and property are passed on according to your wishes. It involves wills, trusts, and other legal instruments to accomplish that task and to make other arrangements, such as the type of medical care you wish to receive or not receive should you become incapacitated. Where disputes occur trust administration can lead to negotiation and litigation over various issues from breach of fiduciary duty to removing a trustee and more. Our firm is thoroughly versed in all of the issues that can arise and taking the appropriate legal measures to fully resolve them.
