Getting an Emergency Guardianship of an Adult
Definition
This category is about applying for an emergency procedure to become the guardian of an adult. This may be because there has been an accident or injury that has made the adult mentally unable to care for themselves. The emergency guardianship would allow the guardian to care for the person's estate and person for a short period of time -- and then could possibly be extended.
