Guardianships

The establishment of guardianships allows someone other than the child’s parent to be given the ability to make decisions for a minor or other dependent. This often includes providing custody to that party. There are many reasons guardianships occur, and often, they are available in situations where it is in the child’s best interests.



At East County Family Law Group, our family law attorney provides legal support and guidance to our clients for a wide range of guardianship-related matters. That may include helping to establish them, changing them, or providing legal support when challenges occur. With our extensive experience working as trusted and experienced guardianship attorneys in Brentwood, CA, we are confident we can help you navigate virtually any legal matter related to these legal structures.

The court must approve all guardianships and any changes to those decision-making and custody rulings. Yet, having an attorney by your side to help you navigate the legal process and meet all of the obligations and requirements set under the law is critical.
