What is Guardianship and what is a Guardian?

by | Oct 1, 2013 | Announcements, General, Law Articles, Local News |

The Florida Bar states: “A guardianship is a legal proceeding in the circuit courts of Florida in which a guardian is appointed to exercise the legal rights of an incapacitated person.

A guardian is an individual or institution (such as a nonprofit corporation or bank trust department) appointed by the court to care for an incapacitated person — called a “ward” or for the ward’s assets.” If my firm can assist you with a guardianship issue please feel free to call me at (904)366-2703 or email me at [email protected].
