Legal Question in Family Law in California

Re: Guardianship of my Grandson

Just to give you a little more comfort, let me chime in a concurrence with my colleague. It sounds like they are just "blowing smoke". Objecting to your continued guardianship just because they object to you divorcing from your husband sounds like a trivial, even silly, reason to base a challenge on. And, they would have to take you to court to do it, and the burden of proof will be on them. And, your son will probably have an opportunity to be heard, too, since this was his voluntary choice. And, at their probable advanced ages, the court will probably view them skeptically anyway. I would be a bit surprised if they carried through on their threat, but be prepared if they try by immediately contacting a local attorney if the smoke turns to fire.

In a general sense, there would have to be a legal basis to change the guardianship and it would have to be in the childs' best interest. Absent more inforation, it sounds like an empty threat.

For a specific opinion as to your individual situation, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
