Compassionate Legal Guidance for Guardianships and Conservatorships
Guardianships and conservatorships are legal arrangements designed to protect individuals who are unable to manage their personal or financial affairs due to age, illness, disability, or incapacity. At The Pearce Law Group, our guardianship and conservatorship attorneys provide clear, compassionate guidance to families throughout Myrtle Beach, Horry County, and across South Carolina during these sensitive legal matters.
Understanding Guardianships and Conservatorships
In South Carolina, a guardianship typically involves court-appointed authority to make personal, medical, and living decisions for an incapacitated individual, while a conservatorship focuses on managing that individual’s financial affairs. These proceedings often involve close family members, medical evaluations, and court oversight.
Our firm assists clients with:
• Adult and minor guardianship proceedings
• Conservatorships for incapacitated adults
• Emergency and temporary appointments
• Contested guardianship and conservatorship matters
• Court filings, hearings, and compliance requirements
• Ongoing reporting and fiduciary obligations
• Modification or termination of guardianships and conservatorships
Protecting the Best Interests of Vulnerable Individuals
Guardianship and conservatorship cases require careful attention to both legal standards and the personal needs of the individual involved. Our attorneys work diligently to ensure that proposed arrangements serve the best interests of the ward while respecting their dignity, independence, and rights whenever possible.
