Obtaining guardianship is an integral measure used to protect the safety and interests of vulnerable individuals. It is a legal arrangement, determined by a judge, that refers to an appointed individual responsible for making decisions on behalf of another person, who is unable to make decisions independently. Guardianship cases traditionally involve minors, elderly adults, or individuals with incapacitating conditions.

AZ Statewide Paralegal does not provide legal representation. However, we work closely with you to ensure seamless compliance with court procedures and documentation standards. The process for court appointment of a guardian is outlined in Arizona Revised Statutes 14-5305 as follows:

For cases regarding guardianship of a minor, the process varies from that of adult guardianship.
