    Joint Control

    I am in the process of applying for a Guardianship Bond and was told that my attorney and I will have to sign a Joint Control Agreement. What does this mean exactly and why is it required?

    It is an agreement that your attorney will oversee your actions as guardian to ensure it is done properly. However, if a claim arises, there is no action taken against the attorney, as it is more of a good faith agreement than a guarantee.

    Joint-control agreements are often required for applicants that do not qualify for the bond otherwise. It is a great way to get your money's worth from your attorney, as you would likely not be approved without it.
