Guardianship Associates of Utah
Guardianship Associates of Utah is the only non-profit guardianship organization in the State of Utah. Since 1991 we have been committed to helping individuals who do not have family available to act as their guardian. We provide direct guardianship and conservator services, as well as trust management and executor services for Special Needs Trusts. We are also passionate in helping families as they navigate the process of seeking guardianship and/or conservatorship for incapacitated children, parents, spouses and siblings.
You will need to plan to fill out paperwork for this around 3 months before your disabled child turns 18.
Basic and Pro Se Training -

Pro Se is the type of service you want that will allow you to represent yourselves without a lawyer. If you take the Pro Se training course, it will walk you through filling out all the paperwork and filing with the courts. You will want to file about a month or two before they turns 18, so they have time to schedule the court date. They will not do it before their
18th birthday.
