guardian deed. Court appointed deed given to a guardian in charge of the sale of real estate. A guardian deed is granted when the original owner is incapable of making decisions regarding their personal affairs or property.
A legal guardian undertakes responsibility for the welfare of someone, known as a ward, who is unable to undertake these responsibilities on his own behalf. A ward may be either a minor whose parents cannot or will not care for him, or an adult suffering from an incapacity that prevents him from meeting his own needs. A guardian can be appointed only by court order. Missouri's guardianship laws are found in Chapter 475 of the Missouri Revised Statutes.
