GUARDIANSHIPS AND CONSERVATORSHIPS
When a family member or a loved one loses the ability to make decisions on their own, then a guardianship and/or conservatorship is likely needed. A conservatorship is also needed when a person under 18-years old receives assets that total over $10,000. The easiest way to think of guardianship and conservatorship is that it allows a court appointed fiduciary to assist a protected person with their personal care, day to day activities, and finances. We take a holistic approach to guardianships and conservatorships and discuss less restrictive alternatives with our clients to ensure that each family is provided with individualized options. If you have a family member or loved one that needs assistance, please contact our office.
