Guardianship and restriction of legal capacity – a lawyer (attorney) not only in Olomouc and Ostrava will help you

Is a loved one suffering from a mental disorder? Are they no longer able to take care of themselves and are you worried that someone might defraud them or have them sign a disadvantageous contract? Or is your relative already completely passive, non-communicative, and you are afraid they will not pick up their mail or respond to urgencies, thereby causing themselves legal and financial problems? Then you are in the right place and we will help you rectify this situation!

Our lawyers and attorneys will be happy to help you with counseling in the field of GUARDIANSHIP, whether it involves drafting a petition for the appointment of a guardian, a petition for the appointment of a guardian for proceedings, a support agreement and a petition for its approval by the court, or drafting a petition for representation by a household member. Likewise, we will help you with the drafting of a petition for the restriction of legal capacity and we will also represent you in these proceedings.

Do I have to visit the attorney’s office in person? Not if you do not wish to.

You write us your requirements and we will draft all the necessary documents for you with instructions on how to proceed further. By saving both your time and ours, you will also SAVE MONEY.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can you contact us?

Ideally via the contact form on the website or via email at [email protected]. Alternatively, you can contact us by phone. However, we are often in meetings or at court, so we may not answer the call, but we will call you back as soon as possible.

Do you provide legal services online?

Yes, in many cases personal contact with the client is not necessary at all and the service can be provided entirely remotely online to the client’s satisfaction. This saves both the client’s time and money.

How long does it take for us to respond to your inquiries and questions?

In the vast majority of cases, we respond on the same or the following day.

How does a legal consultation take place?

Most often via a phone or video call. However, if the client prefers a face-to-face meeting, myself or one of my colleagues will meet them at the office. Occasionally, some clients prefer to consult the matter in writing via email.

Can a client come to the office without an appointment, ring the bell, and arrange a meeting on the spot?

No. In all likelihood, no one will even open the door. Since we have various meetings in different cities, we are often on the road. Many of us also work from home. It is therefore ideal to arrange a meeting via the contact form, email, or by phone.

The list of legal services our firm handles is provided on our website on the homepage or in the services section of the menu. Most frequently, these include family law, criminal law, misdemeanor law, contract law, inheritance law, labor law, and debt recovery.
