Gena Walling McCray, PLLC

Description

Once you file a petition with the Clerk in the correct county, the Clerk will appoint a Guardian ad litem for your family member and will schedule a hearing. The Guardian ad litem will most likely be a local attorney who will visit with your family and report back to the Clerk for the hearing. The Clerk may also require a report from a physician who has examined your family member. If the Clerk determines that your family member is incompetent, the Clerk will then decide who is the best person to serve as guardian. There are basically three types of guardianships: Guardian of the Person , which only handles personal affairs and does not handle financial affairs; Guardian of the Estate , which only handles financial affairs and not personal affairs; and General Guardian , which handles both personal and financial affairs. An attorney can be helpful for all steps of this process, especially if the family is in disagreement about what should happen with the person who has failing health.

Wendy is a producer at a national cable news agency. (A producer is typically the one who decides what is newsworthy, what order to place the news, how much time to give to a story, puts together sound bites, and even will tell newscasters what to say.) Wendy strongly believes that private citizens and our government need to invest in wind energy, i.e. wind mills. Her uncle owns a wind mill development company, and she grew up hearing how efficient and clean this energy is. A researcher at the agency comes to the producer with a story on a plan to expand a wind mill project that is causing some controversy. Those who want it are excited about a new source of energy; those who don't are concerned about how it will look and how it will harm birds. A recent research article demonstrated that windmill farms are having a devastating impact on the bird population. Also, there are opposing research results regarding the actual efficiency of windmills in general.
