This book explores new approaches to guardianship developed through collaborative efforts of legal scholars, judges, guardians, advocates, and other legal professionals. These new approaches aim to provide more effective legal representation for people with cognitive impairments, while respecting their self-determination, autonomy, and freedom. This book explores how this has been achieved in recent guardianship cases and can be continued. It draws on important lessons from pioneering work in Wisconsin and provides a comprehensive compendium of innovative guardianship projects from across the country. The author makes practical recommendations for improving guardianship law, policy, and practice, while offering new perspectives on the historical and legal frameworks that shape guardianship law. This book will be essential reading for anyone working with guardianship issues or interested in the evolving field of elder law.
