The Virginia legal system utilizes three different kinds of guardianships to foster the care of minors: guardianship of the person, guardianship of the estate, and guardian ad litem. Depending on the circumstances, the guardian can be a person with whom the child is familiar, but that is not always a requirement.
Guardians of the property of a minor have to qualify before the Clerk of Court or the Circuit Court, give bond and in most cases post corporate surety on the bond. The guardianship continues until the minor reaches age eighteen (18) at which time the minor is entitled to have all the assets delivered to him.
While it is possible to represent yourself in court when seeking appointment as a child's legal guardian, working with a family law attorney can ensure that you don't miss any important steps in the legal process.
You must fully comply with all the requirements of the Code of Virginia. You must prepare and file a petition requesting appointment of a Guardian at the Clerk of the Circuit Court Civil Division window with the appropriate filing fees.
