Re: Guardianship

Guardianships are done through the probate courts / conservatorships are done through the family courts. In all probability you are going to have to seek conservatorship of your grandson through the family courts. You should find a good family law attorney in your area and sit down and discuss the details of your situation.

Re: Guardianship

Pat is right! Go for custody and NOT guardianship. It's much easier...and cheaper.
