[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 642755, member: 18366"] How about we settle on going to some Family Groups of people with ID's (that's the new term for Developmentally disabilities) Because these family groups are better to advise you from a been there done that perspective. Trust me there is a feed the lawyer game in guardianship and if your daughter has no money, those legal cost of Guardianship will be borne by you and husband. The whole POA vs Guardianship issue is a lot different for people with ID's than say the elderly, as most of them have no money left to steal - but they more so need a competent decision-maker. But in almost every state, as all know it is usually stacked against consumers you will find the Lawyer racket wants it's piece of the pie, and that costs are borne by the people who want guardianship over people who have no money. All of Guardianship is stacked that way. Had I been a paid guardian for my sister ( starting at $65 an HOUR and up to $100PH annual paperwork along is 10-15 hours) plus legal fees and court costs, anyone can where guardianship can quickly run through all but the richest estates. How do I know these things? First of all I took a college course (Professional Guardianship certificate and state tests - different than family guardianship) and I have a difficult child that would steal every last penny from me should she ever get her hands on my money. Trust me, I know my crap [/QUOTE]
