The court will appoint a guardian for the incapacitated individual to look after the incapacitated person’s finances and medical care.

If your loved one is facing incapacity and is involved in a guardianship proceeding, or needs to initiate a guardianship proceeding, our attorneys will provide you with exceptional representation and assist you with the guardianship process.
Under the court-supervised process of a guardianship, the affairs of an incapacitated individual are brought before the court. A guardian is appointed to make important decisions for the incapacitated individual with the incapacitated person’s best interests in mind.
During the guardianship proceedings, the incapacitated individual is known as the ward. The type of guardianship assigned determines the amount of responsibility entrusted upon the guardian: whether of the person, estate, or person and estate.
When an individual is appointed as a guardian of the person, he or she is in charge of making personal and medical decisions for the ward.
When appointed as the guardian of the estate, he or she is responsible for making the ward’s financial decisions. Guardian of the person and estate is simply a combination of the two.
In the state of Nevada, there are guardianship laws to protect the ward during times of incapacitation.
Our legal team has the knowledge and experience to guide you through the processes involved and to make sure everything is in order for the court.
