The Guardianship Affidavit Form is a fundamental document in the German legal system used when establishing legal guardianship over minors or adults who cannot fully care for themselves. It is required by German courts when considering guardianship appointments and must comply with the provisions of the German Civil Code (BGB). The document is typically used in situations where a guardian needs to be appointed due to the death of parents, incapacity of current guardians, or when adults require legal representation due to medical or mental health conditions. The affidavit contains sworn statements about the proposed guardian's qualifications, relationship to the ward, and understanding of their legal responsibilities. It serves as a critical tool for courts and social services to evaluate the suitability of guardianship arrangements and ensure the ward's interests are protected.
