ADDMS Guardianship Services Inc., whose fiduciary responsibilities in estate cases are under scrutiny, and its owner, Alan Polack, removed themselves from dozens of cases and are expected to continue to do so.
Probate Court Administrator Donald Housey said: "They are resigning from them whenever they come up."
ADDMS and Polack resigned from cases after ADDMS' request to disqualify Judge Pamela Gilbert O'Sullivan was turned down by Sullivan and Chief Judge Kenneth Sanborn.
ADDMS and Polack had been appointed as guardians to estates and conservators to individuals in nearly 100 pending cases early this year.
In a state-funded audit of the court by the Whall Group, ADDMS was questioned about "multiple problems in accounts for assets and income" in its cases, according to a summary of the audit by Carl Gromek, state court administrator. It also said Probate Judge Kathryn George "demonstrated poor oversight" in assigning an inordinate number of cases to ADDMS.

No one individual, firm, entity or agency should get so many cases.
This situation points out the need for nonjudicial management of guardianship cases.
Thank you for the update.
One probate judge and one guardian for profit gang down and how many more to go?
The probate gang of crooks, ADDMS and Polack got caught fraudulently billing = stealing = sweet justice!
Anyone want to guess WHY? What motivated Probate Judge Kathryn George to appoint this gang of thieves again and again? There are reasons and I see $$$$$.
Now, a few of the big questions are:
1) When will the indictments come down?
2) Will the IRS review all of their tax returns?
3) Will anyone subpeona the probate judges' financial records?
3) Who is next?
It's great to see the heat on and now I'm hoping it boils over and they're held accountable.
In the meantime, there must be a sigh of relief by the family of every case they resign.
ADDMS Guardianship Services of Shelby Township has an alternative DBA: ADAMS Guardianship Services.
