Some families think they have the best intentions in mind and done all the right things to protect their elderly loved ones by naming a guardian for that person. But the move may have been premature in the eyes of that elderly loved one.
And, in other cases, when guardianship was necessary, the person selected may not have the best qualities to be one or flat out abuses his or her power, making choices not in the best interest of the elderly person. Such narratives open the door for potential guardianship litigation.
When it comes to guardianship litigation, these scenarios often prove complicated and contentious. These situations often pit family members against family members, where compassion for the elderly person and advocacy to protect them collide.
Here are some of the reasons why guardianship litigation occurs:
The guardian has many responsibilities, and the right person needs to be in this role. When disagreements as well as strong objections arise, guardianship litigation may be the only route to pursue.
