We handle guardianship cases for minors and interdiction for those who have lost legal capacity - from appointing a guardian or custodian to legally managing the interdicted person's funds.

Guardianship of minors and those lacking capacity requires a clear judicial appointment defining the guardian's powers over financial and personal affairs. We represent those seeking appointment as guardian or custodian, and prepare the case establishing their suitability and priority for guardianship under the law's order.

We also handle interdiction cases for those proven to have lost capacity due to illness, dementia, or profligacy, and the subsequent appointment of a supervisor to manage their funds, following up on lifting interdiction once its cause ceases through documented legal procedures.
