Protect The Rights of Incapacitated Seniors with Conservatorship

It can be a sudden stroke, or there was no estate planning prior to their worsening Alzheimer's, if the senior becomes incapable of making their own informed decisions on their own well-being physically, medically, and financially, then a conservatorship might be necessary to protect their rights.

Since the responsibilities are immense as the conservator, he/she must be appointed by a judge.  If there is an need for a conservator right away, then the court can appoint temporary conservator during the duration of the general conservator search.

Once appointed, then the general conservator can decide on the living situation, make arrangement on their daily living activities and care, and manage the conservatee's finances, assets, and more with court's approval.
