Q: I feel the guardian of my dads estate is abusing her power over me the beneficiary what lawyer is needed?
The guardian has taken her hate for me to another level. She won guardianship due to my lack of representation and now she is deleting me from all paperwork and refuses to hear me out. what kind of a lawyer do I need to bring her back to reality without her spending all of my dads money on her expensive lawyer. I feel she would back down if she got a strongly worded letter regarding her behavior and the knowledge that she can not take me out of the loop with her decision being the word of God. I really need help with this.
A:
I recommend that you hire an experienced attorney who practices in the area of probate, guardianships and conservatorships. Some of these firms also offer litigation services. Others do not. You need a firm with lawyers capable of litigating these issues in the event a strong letter does not modify the guardian's behavior.
