Guardianships

As we age, taking care of ourselves becomes more challenging. Making sure the people we care about are protected in their golden years is essential to their health and happiness. A guardianship gives you the ability to make choices for an elderly or disabled family member in New York State including:

  • Make healthcare care decisions
  • Manage financial affairs
  • Managing living arrangements
  • and more

Guardianships are a crucial tool, ensuring an individual receives proper care. Sometimes families have not been able to plan sufficiently for the decline of an elderly relative, or their planning has not gone quite far enough. Make sure you and your loved ones are cared for when the time comes.
