Protecting loved ones when they can’t protect themselves.
What is guardianship?
A guardian is appointed by the probate court to make personal and medical decisions for someone who is incapacitated and unable to care for themselves.
What is conservatorship?
A conservator is appointed to manage the financial affairs of someone who cannot do so on their own—often due to dementia, developmental disability, or injury.
