Like it or not, there may be a day when you are no longer able to provide for the care, custody, and control of your minor child. To avoid guardianship disputes in the probate court, it is important to work with an experienced estate planning and probate like attorney Dean E. Patrick and his team.
As minor guardianships can be hotly contested matters, it is imperative for the parent(s) of any minor children to nominate, in writing, who they would like to provide for the care, custody, and control of the minors in case the parent(s) cannot. Typically, family members and close friends are ideal candidates in that they already have an established relationship with the minors.
It is important to make arrangements and plan for the worst to ensure that your children are placed with the right guardian, the one you choose. In the event you have not nominated a guardian in compliance with Michigan law, the probate court will assign a guardian of its choice. DO NOT LET THE COURT PICK YOUR CHILD’S GUARDIAN. Contact probate and minor guardianship Attorney Dean E. Patrick today for help with a minor guardianship nomination so that you can rest assured that your loved ones will be taken care of.
