Establishment of Guardianship over a Child: Legal Support from “Consultant”

The process of establishing guardianship over a child in Ukraine involves a clear legal procedure that includes several stages:

Preparation and filing of the petition: the applicant submits a petition to the court to recognize the child as missing or to declare them deceased, if necessary.
Collection of necessary documents: the petition must include documents confirming family ties, medical reports, income statements, and other documents demonstrating the applicant’s ability to perform the duties of a guardian.
Court proceedings: the court reviews the submitted documents, conducts the required checks, and makes a decision on establishing guardianship.
Enforcement of the court decision: after the decision comes into legal force, guardianship authorities monitor the living conditions of the child under guardianship.

Preparation of the Petition: What You Need to Know

Proper drafting of the petition is a crucial step in the process of establishing guardianship. It is important to clearly present the circumstances of the case, the grounds for establishing guardianship, and to provide all necessary documents supporting these circumstances. Incorrectly drafted petitions may lead to delays in the process or even denial of the petition.

Rights and Duties of the Guardian

A guardian not only provides care and upbringing of the child but is also responsible for the child’s property and personal non-property rights. The guardian is obliged to:

Ensure appropriate living conditions and development opportunities for the child.
Represent the child’s interests in government and local authorities.
Ensure the child receives education, medical care, and other necessary services.
Perform other duties prescribed by law and the court decision.
