Guardianship is the legal process where a court appoints a person to make decisions for a minor or an adult that has been deemed incapacitated. Some of those decisions can include making healthcare decisions, deciding living arrangements and education.
Conservatorship is the legal process where a court appoints a person to make financial decisions for a minor or an adult that has been deemed incapacitated. Some of the conservator’s responsibilities can include: marshalling assets, liquidating assets, receiving income for the estate and protecting property from loss.
“I have had a 5 1/2-6 year relationship with Attorney Hall. Initially I engaged her to gain guardianship and conservatorship for my mother. This also included reporting to the court yearly. As my mother’s health declined, I became the Trustee of her estate. During all of the above , I have found Attorney Hall to be competent, responsive and honest. Also she was not timid about telling me when she thought my judgement was flawed. I would not hesitate to engage her again when I have a need. I am sure that that you will be pleased.“
