Guardianship proceedings are designed to protect individuals who are unable to care for themselves or manage their affairs. Whether the case involves a minor child or an incapacitated adult, guardianship is a serious legal matter that requires court oversight and strict compliance with Texas law. In Texas, guardianships are governed by the Texas Estates Code and are intended to protect the best interests of the proposed ward. Courts closely scrutinize guardianship requests and must consider whether less restrictive alternatives are available before appointing a guardian. We advise clients on options such as powers of attorney and supported decision-making agreements when appropriate.

Guardianship cases often involve deeply personal family concerns and long-term responsibilities. Our approach emphasizes diligence, transparency, and respect for the individual involved. Pittman & Henderson Law Firm represents clients throughout Texas in guardianship matters, providing steady guidance, careful preparation, and thoughtful advocacy at every stage of the process.
