Lawyer to help with welfare of guardian application

Sam and Mareah from Mount Roskill

Hi neighbours,

I am starting the process of applying for welfare of guardian for my Dad as he has Alzheimers and is in the moderate stages. Just wondering if there is any lawyer here on neighbourly or if someone can recommend a lawyer that is affordable to help me with my application please. And also if anyone has gone through the process I’d love to hear how it went for you and your experience. This is my first time doing something like this and I’m very nervous as I have no idea what I’m doing 😅 and have no support as my siblings live overseas. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
