Can guardians accept compensation for their services in Texas?

June 20, 2025 – Kimberly Hegwood

Guardians in Texas have the right to accept reasonable compensation for their efforts. This is especially important for private professional guardians that may be responsible for several wards.

The court must approve all compensation, and guardians are required to provide detailed records of their activities and expenses. This oversight facilitates transparency and accountability while relieving financial burdens on guardians.
