Conservatorships & Guardianships
Conservatorship And Guardianship Attorneys In West Covina
In a conservatorship, a person is appointed by the court to oversee the personal care and financial matters of a person deemed to be unable to manage his or her affairs, and therefore possibly vulnerable to the control of others.
The client will need to decide whether to apply for a Conservatorship of the Person, Conservatorship of the Estate, or both. Conservators of the Person are responsible for seeing that they receive the necessities of life – food, shelter and health care. Conservators of the Estate are responsible for managing the incapacitated person’s finances and assets.
A conservatorship is for incapacitated persons 18 years and older. A guardianship is a similar type of case for minors. Although historically guardianships were established for the protection of orphans, guardianships today are most often used to protect minors whose parents are still living.
