Alternatives to Guardianship (Webinar)

Representatives of institutions often tell parents of young adults with intellectual disabilities or adult children of parents with various disabilities that their loved ones "must" have a guardian to make their health care and financial decisions. But Pennsylvania law requires that less-restrictive alternatives to guardianship be explored before appointing a guardian to an incapacitated person.

Come to this one-hour CLE webinar to learn about Pennsylvania guardianship laws, as well as less-restrictive alternatives to guardianship. The class discussion will be framed by the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct, particularly Rule 1.14. Client with Diminished Capacity.
