Priority will generally be given to the conservatee’s written instructions or family members. Sometimes, however, there are circumstances where appointing a designated representative or family member is going to create additional problems. In those circumstances, the probate courts frequently appoint a neutral party to serve as the conservator. If no one close to Conservatee is considered neutral, the probate court may appoint a third-party such as the County (through an agency known as the Public Guardian) or a private professional conservator. A registry of private professional conservators can be found through the Professional Fiduciary Association of California. www.pfac-pro.org. |
