Conservatorship Assistance in California
When an adult cannot manage personal or financial decisions and no planning is in place, Bezaire & Leathers guides Orange County families through California conservatorship procedures with compassion.
When a conservatorship is needed
Common scenarios include dementia without
powers of attorney, severe brain injury, or a child with significant disabilities reaching adulthood. When private documents don’t exist or aren’t accepted, court authority may be required.

How the Orange County process works
We prepare the petition, coordinate medical declarations, work with the court investigator, and represent you at the hearing. After appointment, we help with bond (if required) and compliance reporting so the file stays in good standing.
Planning alongside long-term care
Families supporting a disabled loved one often pair court authority with a special needs trust to preserve benefits while improving quality of life. We align your court orders with the overall plan.
Conservatorship questions, answered
How long does it take?
A few months is common, depending on court schedules and paperwork readiness.
How much does it cost?
Expect filing fees, possible bond, and attorney time; we outline costs and steps up front.
Can it be avoided?
Sometimes. Timely estate planning with powers of attorney and health directives can reduce the need for court involvement.
