Case: Recognition of the mother as incapacitated and appointment of the son as a guardian

Reading time: 1 min.

Request: The client turned to Prikhodko & Partners Law Firm with a question regarding the registration of custody of his mother, who, due to her advanced age and health condition, could not take care of herself and take legal actions. 

The Client’s goal was to officially obtain the status of guardian in order to legally make decisions regarding the mother’s care, treatment and property management, as well as to protect her interests. 

Solution: The company’s lawyers conducted a detailed analysis of the situation, collected the necessary documents and medical reports confirming the presence of mental disorders and the mother’s inability to independently carry out legally significant actions. 

A full package of evidence was prepared for the court, including: 

  • medical certificates and doctors’ opinions; 
  • documents confirming family ties and living with the Client; 
  • information about the mother’s property and financial assets. 

Further, the lawyers drew up and filed a lawsuit with the court to recognize the mother as incapacitated and appoint the Client as her guardian. During the trial, our team provided full support, representation of the Client’s interests, provision of evidence and arguments regarding the need for guardianship. 

 

Result: The court declared the Client’s mother incapacitated and appointed the Client as her guardian. This gave the Client the official right to make decisions regarding the mother’s medical care, household and property, to ensure proper care and asset management. 

All actions were carried out in accordance with the legislation of Ukraine, without the risk of appeal by other relatives.
