Short answer: no, not directly; there is normally no obligation to provide notice to anyone when you hire a lawyer.
Your facts, however, are much too convoluted and fact-specific to see what the actual point of the question might be; unclear from any of it is how this sitation was created in the first place -- the facts giving rise to the guardianship, and what has changed since then.
In these circumstances, no amount of general e-mail guidance is likely to be of much help; you should try to locate a family law specialist in Reno with whom to consult and go over the entire factual history and all pending motions, as soon as possible.
