ELDER-LAW & GUARDIANSHIP
>>Disclaimer!<<
- The information on this site is general in nature and may not apply to a specific problem.
- The forms on this site are some the author has found useful in his practice; even if the laws of Virginia are uniform, practice from one area to another (and one judge to another) varies. And forget any relationship to the laws of any other state.
- Therefore, reliance on any information posted here, and the use of ANY form (or other document on this site) is at the sole risk and responsibility of the user, and in no way creates or implies an attorney client relationship with the author, his firm, staff, family or even his dog.
- And isn't it silly that we have to cover our *(&%$ with disclaimers in case some fool wants to blame me when they screw up?
- Oh, using this site means you agree with the above.
A lot of Hart and Hart's practice is "Fiduciary", that is, one person having legal control or access to another person's money with the duty to spend it on or for that person.
Unfortunately, many people don't plan to be disabled, or don't trust anyone enough to give them a power of attorney. Thus, we have to go to a Guardianship (in Virginia, legal control over the Person) and Conservatorship (in Virginia, legal control over the Property). Note that other states may call it something else; that's their problem. I have created a number of useful forms and - until I fix this website - will send them on request - you can use the 'contact' form on the first page of this site to ask.
