Guardianship Attorney in Las Vegas
Helping families secure guardianship for minors and vulnerable adults with compassion and clarity.
Guardianship provides a legal way for one person to care for and make decisions on behalf of another. In Nevada, courts may appoint guardians for minor children when parents are unable to provide care, or for vulnerable adults who cannot manage their own affairs due to age, illness, or disability.
At Clement Law Offices, attorney Stefanie Clement has guided families in Las Vegas, Summerlin, and Clark County through the guardianship process for over 20 years, helping them navigate paperwork, hearings, and ongoing responsibilities.
Our goal is to provide compassionate representation while protecting the rights of the proposed ward and ensuring families understand their duties as guardians.
