A guardian can be any capable adult and may be a spouse, family member, friend, neighbor, or professional. Anyone can request to be a guardian, but you’ll need to file a petition for a hearing. The ward can choose to have legal representation, but the court will decide if they need a guardian and if the person applying is a good fit.
