When a court appoints someone to be a legal guardian, it’s placing a great deal of trust in that person. The guardian may be responsible for managing another person’s finances, property, or even their day-to-day personal care. With so much at stake, courts often require a guardianship bond to protect the interests of the individual under care.
Jurisco helps clients across the country secure guardianship bonds quickly and affordably, ensuring that court requirements are met without delay.
A guardianship bond is a type of probate or fiduciary bond. It serves as a financial guarantee that the guardian will carry out their responsibilities in accordance with the law and the court’s instructions. If the guardian fails to meet these obligations—whether through negligence, mismanagement, or intentional wrongdoing—the bond provides a way for the protected person to recover losses.
Courts require guardianship bonds because they act as a safeguard. It’s an extra layer of protection for vulnerable individuals who may not be able to speak up for themselves, such as minors or adults with disabilities.
The need for a guardianship bond can arise in a variety of situations, including:
The bond requirement is not about questioning the guardian’s intentions—it’s about ensuring there’s a safety net in place. Even well-meaning guardians can make costly mistakes, and the bond provides reassurance to the court and the family that the ward’s interests are secure.
