Guardianship Litigation

A guardian can be appointed by the Court if a person becomes incapacitated and is determined to be incapable of handling his or her own affairs.  A guardian may be responsible for all of the person’s financial affairs and personal decisions. Sometimes a guardianship is reasonable or necessary; however, family members may allege an elderly person is mentally incapacitated in order to remove his or her financial control for the personal benefit of the family members.  Mark R. Manceri will challenge allegations of incapacity and fight to remove guardians who act improperly.
