Mar 19/Boston - Intro to Guardianship of Minors - VLP Training

The training will provide a nuts and bolts approach to handling an uncontested guardianship of a minor case. The training will include instruction on how to complete the petition and accompanying pleadings, waive fees and costs, obtain assents from the ward's parents, and how to handle issues of service and the bond. 
This class will give participants the tools they need to handle simple guardianship of minor cases from filing through the establishment of a permanent guardianship. In addition, attorneys and law students who attend this class will be qualified to participate in the VLP/Senior Partners for Justice guardianship petition assistance projects in the Norfolk (Wednesday), Middlesex (Thursday) and Suffolk (Tuesday and Wednesday) Probate & Family Courts on Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. These are limited assistance representation projects in which volunteers help pro se petitioners complete and file the guardian of minor petition and other pleadings.

VLP trainings are offered free of charge to volunteers. Please see the VLP Training Policy.
