Representing Guardians and Concerned Family Members
You may have consulted a court representative or someone else and been confronted with specialized terms from the Texas Probate Code, such as Section 867 Trust or Section 142 Trust. Attorney Jeff Kubes is well equipped to address your needs in this complex legal area, whenever you are seeking information about:
- Guardianship of a minor child or adult
- Guardianship over a person — typically due to a disability or incapacity — or an estate
- Appointing a guardian to make decisions in the event of your own incapacity
- The purposes of, and differences between, various types of special needs trusts
- Your own legal representation in all administrative matters related to your duties as a guardian
- Contesting a guardianship when you believe someone is abusing his or her rights to make decisions about the ward or the ward's estate
Exploring Estate Planning Alternatives to Guardianship
An attorney focused on your best interests can help you understand guardianships and deal efficiently with your specific needs. However, this area of the law is unavoidably complex and the associated legal costs may be significant.
One of the most important services we provide to our clients is explaining how thoughtful, comprehensive estate planning and related services may prevent you or a family member from ever needing a guardianship. Please call (817) 877-3933 to arrange a consultation.
Some documents, such as wills and trusts, can ensure that your wishes regarding your property are carried out. Other documents relevant to healthcare and disability planning may prove equally important if you should ever become incapacitated and unable to make your own decisions.
We will help you develop a durable (financial) power of attorney, healthcare power of attorney, advanced directive to physicians, and other critical legal documents that protect your interests and those of your loved ones.
