“We work for British Columbians to protect the legal and financial interests of children under the age of 19 years, protect the legal, financial, personal and health care interests of adults who need help with decision making, and administer estates of deceased and missing persons.
Our authority to provide these services comes from a variety of B.C. laws. We act under the highest ethical, legal and personal standards – putting clients first when we make decisions.”
