We help to arrange guardianship

Guardianship and guardianship are forms of protection for minors or incapacitated persons who need assistance in exercising their rights and responsibilities. A guardian represents the interests of the ward in legal matters.

Cases on establishing guardianship over an incapacitated relative are now considered much more carefully, because guardianship over a disabled person of groups 1-2 is a basis for deferring mobilization. Therefore, the court thoroughly studies the evidence and establishes the circumstances of the case, a forensic examination is conducted, and the state guardianship authority joins the case. However, this still does not mean that the chances of winning are illusory!

The client requested that his relative be declared incapacitated and that he be appointed her guardian. The lawyer of the law firm “DE-JURE” prepared documents for the court, including a motion to conduct a forensic examination of the relative. We also coordinated the client’s collection of documents for the court and represented his interests at court hearings, explaining the nuances of the case and presenting his arguments to the judge and two jurors.

The court ruled in favor of the client, declaring the relative incompetent and appointing the client as her guardian.
