Re: guardianship case tring to remove mother from stepfather
Guardianship is a probate question, not technically a family code question. You should get an attorney who is familiar with guardianships in your area. You could protect the separate estate, but step-dad may qualify as mom's guardian. You have a problem that you should address in less than 1 year.
