Washington Letters of Guardianship are documents issued by the Washington State courts that grant legal guardianship rights to another person or entity to care for a minor child or an incapacitated adult. The letters are issued when a court is asked to appoint a guardian for a minor child or incapacitated adult who is unable to care for themselves due to a disability or other incapacity. There are two types of Washington Letters of Guardianship: temporary and permanent. Temporary letters are issued by the court on a temporary basis when the court is considering a guardianship petition or the guardianship is being appealed. Permanent letters are issued when a court grants permanent guardianship of a minor or incapacitated adult. The letter contains the court's findings and orders, including the name and contact information of the guardian and the powers granted to them.
