Guardianship in Texas


Acting as a guardian for a family member is one of the most caring and compassionate responsibilities a person can assume. It is vitally important for the health and well-being of the person who needs care. Seeking guardianship can be a complex matter. 

Courts do not easily take away the legal agency of adults so, in order to be appointed a guardian, you must be able to prove, with medical evidence, that there is a need and that the proposed guardian is suitable to serve. There must also be no less-restrictive legal alternatives to help the ward other than a guardianship. During this process, it is beneficial enlisting an attorney knowledgeable in Texas guardianship laws.  

Frisco Guardianship attorneys at Ball Morse Lowe, PLLC are committed to helping families care for a loved one. We have a team of dedicated family law attorneys fully equipped to handle multiple types of guardianship cases.

Our team of talented and compassionate guardianship lawyers have devoted their legal careers to helping families with difficult life decisions requiring legal intervention. When you need highly experienced representation, contact our Frisco guardianship attorneys to schedule a consultation: (214) 272-0964.

Types of Guardianship We Handle


Proving the Need for Guardianship


One of the challenges of guardianship is establishing that the person has become incapable of handling their own affairs. People may not be suffering the effects of a mental illness all the time. Sometimes they may be doing well, and other times poorly. But establishing guardianship is in place all of the time. The court will want to know if this is the least restrictive way to address the problem.

Illnesses like Alzheimer’s develop over a long period of time. At what point has the person’s thinking become so disordered that they need someone else to handle their affairs?

Guardianships can secure protection, or take away your independence. There are no black and white answers regarding guardianship proceedings. That's why our highly experienced guardianship lawyers in Dallas, TX. handle each case with skill and care. 

When you meet with our team of dedicated guardianship attorneys, we can explain how the local probate judges have viewed cases similar to yours in the past. Our attorneys can advise you on strategies short of guardianship, as well as help you secure medical opinions regarding capacity. Armed with this information, you can then decide whether you want to pursue guardianship. If that is the most optimal route, we will build a thorough case and represent you in court.

Preparing in Advance for Challenges


If a loved one is competent at this time but you know that their capacity will be compromised in the future, you can schedule an attorney consultation today to lay the groundwork for Guardian in advance of need, or for Powers of Attorney. It is much easier to get the courts to agree to these plans in advance when the vulnerable adult is still competent and can agree to them.

Challenging a Guardianship


Frequently, guardianship disputes arise. Our firm can represent prospective guardians, family members and people who are fighting the appointment of a guardian in guardianship litigation. Issues for litigation include:

  • Misuse / theft of funds or assets of the vulnerable person
  • Abuse or neglect of the vulnerable person
  • Unsuitability of a proposed guardian

Jon Dean Green

★★★★★

I turned to Ball Morse Lowe PLCC when I needed my mother's estate probated in Oklahoma. It involved mineral rights and I live in California and my mother had not lived in OK for over 60 years. I wanted a firm that would do this correctly and be reasonable in cost. Brian Hill was a pleasure to work with. He and his staff were professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They made the experience of probate painless, explained things as we went along, and were clear in their expectation of what they would need from me to move the process forward. I am so glad I found them and appreciate deeply all they accomplished on my behalf.
