Guardianship Petition
A Guardianship Petition is filed in court when there is a need to determine who will have legal responsibility for a minor child, especially when the parents are separated, divorced, or deceased. The petition is filed by a relative, family member, or a third party who seeks legal custody or guardianship. Adv. Anupama Sharma clarifies that the primary consideration in such cases is the best interests and welfare of the child. Factors like the child's emotional well-being, education, health, and relationship with the potential guardian are carefully assessed by the court.
In cases where both parents are unable to take care of the child, the court may appoint a guardian, considering the child's safety, upbringing, and overall care. Adv. Anupama Sharma emphasizes that the guardian appointed through a court petition has the authority to make important decisions on behalf of the child, including healthcare and education. The process requires thorough documentation, and the legal proceedings are handled with utmost care to ensure the child’s future is secure.
