Arizona Guardianship Attorneys

Exploring Alternatives to Adoption

What if you are caring for a child, or are the biological parent(s) of a child, and do not feel that adoption is in the best interest of all parties involved?  There are other options available to families in this situation.  Our juvenile law attorneys can help you explore all option and determine if an alternative to adoption is right for you.

Guardianship

A guardianship occurs when a child is placed in the care of someone other than his/her natural parent(s).  The child is determined to be the ward of the Court and in need of someone to safeguard his/her best interests.  This person becomes the child’s guardian.  The guardian has custody and control over the child without terminating the biological parent(s) rights.  If you feel that a guardianship is the right choice for your family, we can help you file the guardianship petition and navigate through the entire guardianship process.

Parental Power of Attorney

A parental power of attorney provides limited ability to be able to make decisions concerning a child in your care or custody.  If you are taking care of a child for a limited amount of time, creating a parental power of attorney may be your best option.  It will allow you to make specific decisions concerning the child’s medical care and education.  We can help you draft and execute a parental power of attorney.
