In California, many families struggle to care for adults who are not able to care for themselves. A conservatorship is a proceeding where a judge appoints a responsible person or organization to assist an adult with a disability with personal care or finances. This session provides general information about the court process and help in preparing and filing documents to be appointed as a probate conservator.

Class covers:

• Screening for appropriateness of probate conservatorships or available alternatives
• Obtaining referrals for other types of assistance
• Overview of conservatorship law
• Rights of the conservatee and responsibilities of the conservator
• The court forms needed to file for a conservatorship
• The petitioning process—what to expect before and after the hearing
• The post-hearing process

Walk-ins welcome. First come, first served.
