Conservatorship & Guardianship Attorneys

Our Conservatorship and Guardianship Services

The attorneys at Crow Estate Planning & Probate offer various services to help you protect vulnerable family members and friends:

Guardianships: In Kentucky, a guardianship is an arrangement in which a court appoints a guardian to make decisions for a minor child or a vulnerable adult. However, guardianship in Tennessee specifically refers to arrangements for minor children. Both states task guardians with making all necessary decisions about care and protection for the at-risk individual.

Conservatorships: In Kentucky, a conservatorship is a legal instrument that appoints a court-approved individual, called a conservator, to make financial decisions for an at-risk adult. In Tennessee, a conservatorship appoints a court-approved individual to manage the economic, medical, and personal needs of a vulnerable person. Conservators must act in the best interests of the person in their care.

Limited conservatorships: In cases where adults need help with only specific financial activities, only some decision-making responsibilities are granted to the conservator. The conservatorship lawyers at Crow Estate Planning & Probate can help structure a limited conservatorship that clearly outlines your duties.

Estate planning: If you care for a vulnerable adult or a child with disabilities, you will want to ensure that these individuals are taken care of if you can no longer care for them. The lawyers at Crow Estate Planning & Probate can ensure that at-risk loved ones are looked after through your estate plan.

Contesting a conservatorship or guardianship: If an individual regains capacity and is capable of managing their own affairs, they may seek to challenge a guardianship. People can also seek to have a guardianship or conservatorship changed or removed in case of abuse or neglect. The attorneys at Crow Estate Planning & Probate can help you challenge or defend a guardianship or conservatorship.

Real Answers, Presented Clearly

Unlike general law firms with dozens of practice areas, at Crow Estate Planning & Probate, we have placed all our resources into protecting legacies. Our focus on estate and business planning enables us to explain conservatorships and guardianships clearly, answer your questions, and create tailored plans to help protect your loved ones.

Ongoing Support

Family members may disagree about a loved one’s care or their capacity to make their own decisions. A child may reach the age of majority but still need help, or a temporarily disabled adult may get better, creating questions about whether a guardianship or conservatorship needs to be changed. At Crow Estate Planning & Probate, a guardianship lawyer can address changing needs and ensure that vulnerable children and adults are protected. Our team can even design an estate plan to ensure support is ongoing.

If questions arise about your decisions or if you need support as a guardian or conservator to carry out your duties, our attorneys can defend your choices or help you fulfill your obligations. If a family member suddenly experiences psychosis or is otherwise in danger due to an illness, we can explore an emergency conservatorship. Our goal at every step is to support you and your family.

Local, Compassionate Support

Conservatorships and guardianships can address some of the most challenging questions about care: Who needs extra help? What support is best, and who should be responsible?

To sort out these questions, you need more than a lawyer for conservatorship. You need someone with a big heart who is committed to doing the right thing. Crow Estate Planning & Probate is a different conservatorship law firm — we’re committed to community and making the world better. Our legal team volunteers in our community throughout the year, and we’re active in our communities through memberships in the Chambers of Commerce for Clarksville, Nashville, Springfield, Franklin and Hopkinsville.

Bill Boyd

Where do I begin? I truly can’t say enough nice things about Crow Estate Planning & Probate and Alexandra Hulme, without her and everyone around her, I can truly say I don’t know where I would be today. Like many after losing my mother, I was lost, in a dark place and things weren’t happening how my mother had planned in her trust and will. Before waiting too long, I retained Alexandra’s services and she took me through the process step-by-step. Something that I never thought I could afford or I’d have to do. She knew I wasn’t asking her to do anything more than complete my mother’s last wishes. She did just that. They did it because they’re passionate about what they do. Communication was A+. She never left me hanging. I know family means a lot to her/them. I am indebted to her and these people forever. If you need help, call her today. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Alexandra from the bottom of my heart.

Travis Henry

I was referred to John by a fellow real estate investor when I needed guidance on structuring a couple of LLCs. From the start, he made the process incredibly smooth and straightforward. John was consistently responsive, thorough in his explanations, and showed a genuine commitment to getting everything completed on time—even working late to accommodate my schedule while I was operating from Hawaii, several time zones away. His mix of professionalism, attention to detail, and approachable demeanor made the entire experience seamless. I’m grateful to have him as a resource and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable attorney.

Andre Christophe

Bridget and Thomas were very professional and knowledgeable in responding to my needs. Also, they were very organized and easy to work with.

Allen Moser

This firm has done several things for me and real estate clients. Most recently setting up a TIST (Tennessee Investment Services Trust). And redoing my Will, Medical Power of Attorney, and Healthcare Directive. Appreciated their understanding of all of the intricacies of each document. Their timely communication and prompt service.
