Our Legal Guardianship Services

Complete Guardianship Representation

Child & Family Well-Being

We manage every step of the guardianship process, from paperwork and court filings to hearings and trial, ensuring accuracy and keeping you informed throughout.

Emergency and Temporary Guardianships

When urgent action is needed, we can help you secure a temporary guardianship order to protect the child’s safety while the full case proceeds.

Contested Guardianships

If a parent or other party objects, we provide strong courtroom advocacy, presenting clear evidence that the guardianship serves the child’s best interests.

Strategic Guidance for Parents

We advise and represent parents contesting guardianship, working to protect your rights and, when possible, restore custody.

Guardianship During CFWB Involvement

If a child is under investigation by Child & Family Well Being (formerly known as CPS), we help relatives or trusted friends pursue guardianship to keep the child out of foster care and resolve agency concerns.

Consultations and Ongoing Support

We offer free initial consultations and ongoing, trauma-informed support to help you make informed decisions at every stage.
