Reasonable compensation for the guardian’s services;(b)
Necessary and reasonable expenses incurred in exercising the authority and performing the duties of a guardian; and(c)
Reasonable expenses incurred in retaining accountants, attorneys, appraisers or other professional services.2.

The type, duration and complexity of the services required; and(c)
Any other relevant factors.3.
In the absence of an order of the court pursuant to this chapter shifting the responsibility of the payment of compensation and expenses, the payment of compensation and expenses must be paid from the estate of the protected minor.

The nature, extent and liquidity of the protected minor’s assets;(b)
The disposable net income of the protected minor;(c)
Any foreseeable expenses; and(d)
Any other factors that are relevant to the duties of the guardian pursuant to NRS 159A.079 or 159A.083.4.
Any compensation or expenses, including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, must not be paid from the estate of the protected minor unless and until the payment of such fees is approved by the court pursuant to this section or NRS 159A.344, as applicable.5.
A guardian is not allowed compensation or expenses, including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, for services incurred by the guardian as a result of a petition to have him or her removed as guardian if the court removes the guardian.
