A Guardianship contest is considered as the time when you have to get the Court involved to ensure your loved one is protected. It can take many forms and can be named many things. Take a look at the following example questions below and depending on the answers, it may be time to consult with a Guardianship Attorney.
A Guardianship contest can include attempting to remove a Power of Attorney who is self-dealing or not properly handling their fiduciary responsibility, or fighting the appointment of a guardian because they are not suitable to be in charge of the assets or medical decisions of your loved one. It can also include attempting to remove a Guardian that the Court has already appointed. It is important to remember this is not an all-inclusive list and each situation is different.
