Protect Your Loved Ones From a Legal Guardianship

Donna J. Jackson, Attorney at Law, P.C.

If you failed to create a living will or power of attorney, you may be forced to accept the court's appointment of a legal guardian. Legal guardianship can be avoided by drafting a durable power of attorney. If unable to complete these documents, someone must be given the authority to make your financial and medical decisions for you if you become incapacitated. To learn more about conservatorships and guardianships, contact Donna J. Jackson, Attorney at Law, P.C.

We represent people living in and around the counties of Oklahoma, Cleveland, and Canadian facing a legal guardianship proceeding. If you believe your family member is susceptible to financial and physical abuse, have us petition the court to appoint you as guardian.

Guardians: These are court appointed individuals who are given the authority to make financial and healthcare decisions for people deemed incapable of making decisions on their own.

Conservators: Often referred to as guardian of the person, this person has the ability to control another person's decisions about their health and finances. A person under a conservatorship is a protected person.

Examples of the types of guardianship services we provide include:

• Getting court orders where you are appointed guardian of your loved
• Helping you ensure that all essential healthcare treatments is provided to your family member
• Advising you on how to protect your family member's assets once you become guardian
