Guardianship

GUARDIANSHIP Doesn't Have To Be A Painful Process

At The Collaborative Law Group, we have seen first-hand how “hot-button” family law issues like guardianship can tear a divorcing couple even further apart and make matters worse. Our collaborative law approach aims to resolve these problems quickly, peacefully, and amicably.

Exploring Your Options

​As you navigate the complex realm of guardianship, we understand the importance of making informed decisions for the well-being of your loved ones. At The Collaborative Law Group, located in Maryland, we offer compassionate counsel to guide you through the various guardianship options available:

​

  • Full Guardianship: This option grants the guardian complete authority over the personal and financial affairs of the ward, ensuring comprehensive care and protection.

  • Limited Guardianship: For situations where the ward may retain some decision-making capacity, limited guardianship provides oversight and assistance in specific areas while preserving the individual’s autonomy.

  • Temporary Guardianship: When urgent circumstances arise, temporary guardianship offers a timely solution, granting the appointed guardian the authority to act on behalf of the ward for a limited period.

  • Standby Guardianship: With this option, you can plan for the future by designating a standby guardian who steps in when necessary, safeguarding your loved one’s interests in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

  • Joint Guardianship: For cases where shared responsibilities are beneficial, joint guardianship allows multiple individuals to collaborate in providing care and support for the ward.

  • At The Collaborative Law Group, our experienced attorneys are dedicated to assisting you in pursuing guardianship arrangements that best suit your unique situation. We approach each case with empathy and sensitivity, ensuring the welfare of your loved one is at the forefront of our efforts.
