Minor Guardianship:

When parents are not present or are not fit to care for their children, a grandparent, aunt, uncle or other close family member may seek guardianship in order to provide for the children in their time of need. Reasons you would need to initiate legal guardianship proceedings include, but are not limited to:

  • Death of One or Both Parents

  • Drug or Alcohol Abuse
  • Incarceration
