    Default Helping a Minor Whose Parents are Deceased, Ward of the State

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Louisiana
    I have a 17 yo girl, friend of my childrens', living in my home. She has no legal guardian. Her Mom died last year and the "father" listed on her birth certificate died a long time ago. Her real birth father has no paper saying that he is the birth father, and therefore cannot help me. She has graduated High School. I'm trying for a drivers license so she can attend vocational school. Do not know what to do.

    Default Re: No Legal Guardian, Both Parents on Birth Cert. Deceased

    Filing for guardianship is likely the easiest way.

    Naturally Louisiana doesn't have forms online, but they should be easy enough to obtain.

    When does she turn 18 ? It might be cheaper, easier and faster to just wait until she turns 18 and let her get it.
