What is the New South Wales Civil and Administrative Tribunal?

The New South Wales Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) is the body responsible for handling disputes and reviews in a wide range of legal areas, including guardianship matters.

The NCAT plays a crucial role in resolving issues related to the care and decision-making of individuals who lack capacity, ensuring that choices are made fairly and in the best interests of the person concerned.

For guardianship cases, NCAT can:

• Appoint guardians or financial managers for individuals unable to make decisions for themselves.
• Review or revoke existing guardianship or financial management orders.
• Handle appeals concerning decisions made by the NSW Trustee and Guardian or the Public Guardian.

If you need assistance with guardianship matters, our enduring guardian lawyers can guide you through the process, represent you at NCAT, and provide expert advice tailored to your situation.
