Conservatorships & Guardianships
Providing Legal Protection for Those Who Need It Most
When a loved one can no longer manage their personal or financial affairs due to age, illness, or incapacity, establishing a conservatorship or guardianship may be necessary. At Ansari & Associates, Law Office, our experienced conservatorships and guardianships attorneys help families navigate the legal process to ensure their vulnerable loved ones receive the care and protection they need.
What is Conservatorship?
A conservatorship is a legal arrangement in which a court appoints a responsible person (the conservator) to manage the personal and/or financial affairs of an adult who is unable to do so on their own.
Types of Conservatorships:
- Conservatorship of the Person – Manages the individual’s personal care, including medical decisions and daily living needs.
- Conservatorship of the Estate – Handles financial matters, including assets, income, and expenses.
When is a conservatorship needed?
- An elderly parent suffering from dementia or Alzheimer’s
- An adult with a severe disability who cannot manage their finances
- A person incapacitated due to illness or injury
What is a Guardianship?
A guardianship is a court-appointed legal relationship where a responsible adult (the guardian) is granted the authority to make decisions for a minor child when their parents are unable to do so.
Guardianships may be necessary when:
- A child’s parents have passed away or are unable to care for them
- Parents are facing serious illness or legal issues
- A child requires someone to manage their financial affairs
