Yes. The Court may also appoint an attorney to represent the interests of the minor. Establishing and maintaining a guardianship requires the guardian to complete initial and then annual reports and accountings and to have interaction with and oversight of the court system. Having an attorney to assist in this is essential.

in Florida, any guardianship requires at least one attorney. The parent proposed guardian will need an attorney and in some cases the court may appoint a lawyer to represent the child's interest. Much of this depends on what you are trying to accomplish and if you have consent from the parents or not.
