This informative and practical seminar is for attorneys that receive court appointments in various capacities in adult guardianship matters, and for those looking to serve in such roles for the benefit of vulnerable adults who are alleged to be incapacitated. In May 2021, the Supreme Court promulgated revised Guidelines for Court-Appointed Attorneys in Guardianship Matters to prepare attorneys for these critically important appointments. Learn everything you need to know about the revised Guidelines and other new relevant adult guardianship initiatives from the past year.

TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • An Overview of the Guidelines
  • Standard Procecdures
  • Potential Issues Unique to Guardianship Matters
  • Ethical Issues
  • New Form Report of Court-Appointed Counsel for Alleged Incapacitated Person
  • New Background Screening Policy for Proposed Guardians of Incapacitated Adults
  • Exemption from Madden Requirement for Attorneys who Provide Pro Bono Services in Adult Guardianship Matters
