Assessing Guardianship and Alternatives for Incapacity

Does your loved one lack the mental capacity to make his or her own financial decisions, manage a personal bank account or make responsible decisions to administer their own medications? Did a physician determine that your loved one is either partially or totally incapacitated? In such situations, before you consider a guardianship of the person and/or estate, you will want to determine if there are less restrictive alternatives or supports and services available to your loved one.
