The role of Court Evaluators in guardianship cases in New York is crucial for the court's decision-making process.
As you are probably aware, Court Evaluators play a critical role in guardianship cases by acting as the "eyes and ears" of the court, conducting thorough investigations, and providing detailed reports to assist the court in making informed decisions about the appointment of guardians.
The Court Evaluator's findings and recommendations are compiled into a written report, which includes personal observations and responses to specific statutory questions. This report is submitted to the court to aid in its decision regarding the appointment of a guardian.
In summary, Court Evaluators’ roles are vital and they ensure that the best interests of the individual are prioritized, and that guardianship is only appointed when absolutely necessary.
