North Carolina law narrowly tailors guardianship to each individual’s needs. These guardianship laws are in place to ensure that vulnerable people are not taken advantage of financially.
When a person goes through the guardianship process, they have certain rights. One of these rights is the right for the person petitioning to prove that there is a need for guardianship. Equally, another right is the right for guardianship to be as limited as possible to meet the needs of the protected person.
