The legal status, responsibility, or role of being a guarantor; the relationship created by making a guarantee.
From guarantor plus -ship (condition of being). This formalizes the legal standing of one who guarantees in English common law.
Guarantorship is more formal than just 'being a guarantor'—it's a legal relationship that courts recognize and enforce, so guarantors can be sued if they break their promise!
