Co-Guardianship

Co-guardianship is a legal arrangement where two or more individuals share the responsibilities of caring for a person who cannot fully care for themselves, such as a minor or an adult with disabilities. Each co-guardian has specific rights and duties, allowing them to make decisions jointly or independently, depending on the arrangement. This approach ensures that the needs of the individual in guardianship are met through collaborative support, combining the strengths and perspectives of all co-guardians to provide a more comprehensive and balanced care approach.
