Guardianship, Litigation & Probate

When Someone You Care About Is Mentally Incapacitated, It Can Feel Devastating. When We Can, We Work With Our Clients To Avoid The Legal Remedy Known As Guardianship.

Avoiding guardianship altogether should be one of your greatest motivators to see us for an adequate estate plan, so that your family will be spared the grief of going to court to have you declared incompetent. A court-appointed guardianship protects an incapacitated individual with a protective legal arrangement. Usually, guardianships are used on to protect older adults who have lost mental capacity due to senile dementia, major strokes, severe mental illness, or other conditions.

Our Reviews

My wife and I had our first child three years ago. That’s when we decided to set up a trust, should anything happen to either of us. We reached out to Zach Hesselbaum to help us out. He was very thorough and professional throughout the whole process. Zach went above and beyond to make sure that we understood every detail of setting it up and he did an excellent job. We recently had our second child a few months ago. With the new baby, he helped us make the necessary revisions to the trust. Zach made this process great for us! I would definitely recommend using him for any of your estate planning needs!
