Re: guardianship in michigan
Assuming that your mother needs nursing home care, you will only be able to preserve about half of the estate. It will be tough if no estate planning has been done, because you will have to get court authority to gift assets--and not many attorneys know how to convince a judge to allow that. You may be able to be appointed co-conservator with your sister.
You will want to contact an elder law attorney soon. By your zip code, you are close to Saginaw. I would recommend that you get in touch with Robert Mannor there. He can help.
