Guardianships / Conservatorships

We understand that dealing with a loved one who is not able to care for him or herself can be one of the most challenging ordeals that a person can face. Coordinating medical care and housing options for a family member who is unable to make appropriate life choices can be difficult. Managing finances for one who cannot manage his or her own assets can be challenging. Often times, these issues are further complicated by strained family relationships. We can help. At Reese, Pyle, Drake & Meyer, PLL, we assist clients in appointing the guardian or conservator who is best suited to handle these issues for minors and incompetent adults. We also assist clients in the ongoing management of the guardianship or conservatorship estate, the required court reports and proceedings, and other administrative requirements of the guardianship or conservatorship.

Should the appointment of the guardian or conservator be contested, or if disputes arise during the guardianship or conservatorship, our litigation team brings the necessary expertise, sensibility, and sensitivity to humanely and discretely resolve the dispute.
