Contested Gaurdianship Committed to Your Case

Contested Guardianship Services in Corpus Christi, Texas

In Texas, guardianship is the arrangement by which a child or incapacitated adult receives the care they need from an appointed guardian. The guardian has full decision-making authority over the ward’s healthcare, financial, legal, and personal matters. When a court establishes guardianship of a ward or estate, however, the decision may not be final. If the ward or another party feels the guardian should be someone else, or the ward no longer needs a guardian, the arrangement can be contested.

At Rothschild Law Firm, our contested guardianship lawyer understands how important it is that your loved one be properly cared for. Whether your goal is to transfer guardianship to yourself or someone else, change the terms of the guardianship, or terminate the guardianship entirely, we will develop an airtight litigation strategy to advocate for what you feel is best for your loved one. If you currently have a guardian and believe you no longer need one, we will represent you with a firm dedication to your freedom and best interests.

However, evidence in the proceeding may not have been thoroughly considered, or new evidence that drastically changes the circumstances comes to light after the guardian has been chosen.
