What Is Guardianship?

Guardianship is a legal relationship between a competent adult (the "guardian") and a person who is no longer able to take care of their affairs (the "ward"). A person can be incapacitated through age or disability, unable to take care of their personal needs or property management as a result.

The guardian is authorized to make:

  • Legal
  • Financial
  • And healthcare decisions for the ward

In some instances, our may suggest a “limited guardianship,” in which the guardian may exercise only those rights that have been removed from the ward and delegated to the guardian.

Because guardianship involves a profound loss of freedom and dignity, state laws require that guardianship be imposed only when less restrictive alternatives have become ineffective. Our team can guide you through these various options to help you make the best decision for your specific circumstances. If you need help with elder guardianship, contact an elder care attorney in Long Island from our law firm.
