Guardianship is an increasingly complex legal issue, particularly when contested. It can be very costly to resolve as well.

Tripp Scott provides guardianships services to minors, incapacitated adults, alleged incapacitated persons (AIGs), family members and other interested parties. Our work with regard to guardianship is primarily in Miami-Dade, Palm Beach and Broward Counties, but is extended to clients in other parts of the state as well.

Some of the specific guardianship issues for which our attorneys provide counsel, service and representation are:

  • Limited guardianships

  • Plenary guardianships

  • Incapacity hearings

  • Emergency temporary guardianship (ETG) hearings

  • Guardian ad litem appointments

  • Petitions to approve settlements for minors
  • Accounting issues

  • Termination issues

  • Contesting the establishment of a guardianship

  • Representation in all adversary proceedings relating to guardianship

Our firm offers unique value with respect to guardian and conservatorship issues in experience and in high quality services at competitive rates.

Focused on these issues for some time, our lawyers deal with guardianship matters and represent clients in South Florida guardianship proceedings nearly every day. As a result, they have earned the respect and trust of their clients, and peers in the legal community - many of whom refer people with these issues to our firm.
