Paul W. Tracey, Solicitors are pleased to offer you our experience in Wardship Applications. 

By  way of overview there are two categories of ‘Wards’:

• Adults who have been brought into Wardship because of mental incapacity and
• persons under 18 years of age in need of the protection of the Court.

The principal purpose of Wardship is to protect the property of the Ward and to manage it for the benefit of the Ward and that of dependants (if there are any).

The legal costs of a Wardship Application and of on-going Wardship proceedings are in most cases paid out of the Ward’s estate.

If you consider that there are grounds for someone being made a Ward of Court then we will be pleased to offer our assistance.

For more information, please contact us.

We have set out below a number of links may assist you in your research.
