Guardians & Conservators
When a person is unable to manage their own affairs because of physical or mental illness, or because they are not of legal age, it may be necessary to appoint a guardian or conservator for their own protection.
In general, a guardian is appointed by the court to take care of another person. A guardian is given physical custody of the person they are charged to care for. A conservator is appointed by the court to manage the property and affairs of another person. Both require a written petition, a court hearing and the approval of a judge.
The appointment of a guardian or conservator can often be a difficult and stressful time for a family, and we understand the many sensitive issues that can arise when a loved one needs help. Our experience and knowledge of the law can make this time less difficult for everyone.
