Once the court appoints me as Guardian of the Estate, what are my duties?

Within 90 days after being appointed guardian, you must file financial reports with the court, including an inventory and appraisal signed by a referee showing the value of the assets in the estate. You must:

• Collect and make a list of all the child's property and find, get, and protect all money and property that are part of the estate; then
• Put all property in the estate's name; and,
• Record copies of the Letters of Guardianship (Form GC-250) with the County Recorder in every county where the child owns real property (land, houses or buildings).
