Juvenile Guardianships Attorney

The number of children under guardianship in Massachusetts has increased by 38 percent in the past 10 years. If you are a grandparent, aunt, uncle, or other interested party who would like to obtain guardianship of a child or children, I can help. Massachusetts guardianship rules are complex but I will put my 25 years of experience to work for you and your family.

Guiding You Through the Guardianship Process

I have handled hundreds of guardianship cases. Many have been emergency situations, in which I receive the call at 9 a.m. and go in front of a Judge by 2 p.m. While this is not a situation any of us would consider ideal, it is sometimes necessary.

If you find yourself needing to protect the interests of a minor, let me help you. We can assess the needs and best interests of the child/children and prepare the necessary documents and evidence to bring before the Court. Whether this is an urgent family matter or one that has been slowly developing, I will be sensitive to the underlying problems and work with you to secure a resolution.
