At Huth, Pratt & Milhauser, PLLC, our skilled guardianship attorneys guide families, fiduciaries, and professionals through every aspect of guardianship administration in the State of Florida.

From establishing a guardianship to ongoing court supervision, we provide compassionate, experienced legal representation across Palm Beach County, Broward County, and all of South Florida.

What Is Guardianship Administration?

Guardianship administration is a court-supervised process that authorizes a person (the guardian) to act on behalf of another individual (the ward) who has been deemed legally incapacitated. This process is governed by Florida law and involves ongoing responsibilities, reporting, and legal compliance.

Our Florida Guardianship Services

Huth, Pratt & Milhauser provides comprehensive guardianship administration services, including:

Establishing Legal Guardianship

We help families petition the Florida courts to establish guardianship for:

  • Incapacitated adults
  • Elderly individuals with dementia or Alzheimer’s
  • Adults with developmental disabilities
  • Minor children without parental care

We handle the entire process, including examining committee coordination, hearings, and appointment of the guardian.

Guardian of the Person

We assist with responsibilities related to the physical well-being of the ward, including medical care, living arrangements, and day-to-day decision-making, ensuring full compliance with the guardian’s legal duties under Florida law.

Guardian of the Property

We guide guardians in managing financial and legal affairs, including:

  • Asset inventory and protection
  • Court-approved expenditures
  • Income and expense tracking
  • Annual accounting and reporting

Guardian Advocacy for Developmentally Disabled Adults

Under Florida Statutes §393.12, we assist families seeking guardian advocacy—a simplified form of guardianship for adults with developmental disabilities who may need help managing their affairs but do not require a full incapacity determination.

Annual Reporting & Compliance

We provide ongoing support to guardians with:

  • Initial plans and inventories
  • Annual reports, accountings, and updates
  • Filing with the court and ensuring legal compliance
  • Modifications or terminations of guardianship
