Dec/16/2019 A Guardian is by law entrusted with the care of a person, property or both. SFGP understands that this one of the most important assignments that can be bestowed upon a person. The duties of a Guardian are prescribed by the laws of the State of Florida and by the rules established by the Supreme Court of Florida. SFGP provides a complete range of services to protect and care for our clients. We promote independence, health, and well-being. With experienced and specially trained professionals we are able to provide many benefits to our clients and their families. Many of our wards have multiple medical issues and are living alone, and new clients are often in crisis. SFGP is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to authorize medical, psychiatric, legal, financial and social services. Depending on the client’s needs we assign a nurse or social worker to provide professional care management services. We work with families to provide advice and assistance with care management issues. SFGP‘s General Counsel specializes in the practice of guardianship and elder law in addition to all related legal issues that may stem from the representation of the guardian or ward. With an in-house legal department, we are able to provide conventional legal services effectively and expeditiously. SFGP‘s General Counsel can provide almost immediate access to the probate court system in the event of an emergency. Through our own Legal Department, we are able to provide our clients with exceptional legal services at a fraction of the cost of a private law firm.
