Coeur d'Alene Guardianships Lawyer

Sandpoint Child Custody Attorney

Guardianships can happen when a parent can no longer care for a minor child. When a parent cannot care for a child because of death, a medical reason, drug or alcohol abuse, child neglect or abandonment or child abuse, another adult who is willing to be responsible for the child can apply for a legal guardianship through the family court system. In many cases, the guardian is a grandparent, aunt or uncle or family friend.

As an experienced family law attorney, I can assist you in finding the best solution for the child whose custody is at stake. Call 877-415-9021 or e-mail my office.

Helping You Navigate Guardianship Process

Guardianship disputes can involve intense emotions on the part of the adult parties as well as the children involved. My goal in any guardianship matter is to ascertain what is in the best interest of the child. I assist you by safeguarding your legal rights and making the smoothest transition possible.

Helping You Understand Your Options

Many people who visit my Coeur d'Alene office want to know the chances they have of securing a guardianship or of defeating a guardianship challenge. I cannot tell you until I know the factual circumstances of your specific situation. Once I assess your situation, I will make recommendations regarding your options. You, however, are the final decision-maker as to the next step.

I also represent grandparents who are seeking visitation of their grandchildren, and assist in guardianship termination proceedings when a parent is back on his or her feet and can again provide a stable home for the child.
