CONSERVATORSHIPS IN UTAH
A conservatorship is a legal arrangement in which a court appoints an individual to manage the financial affairs, assets, and estate of another person who is unable to do so independently due to incapacity, disability, or other factors.
This legal relationship grants the conservator the authority and responsibility to make financial decisions, pay bills, manage investments, and protect the conservatee's financial interests, with the primary aim of safeguarding their assets and ensuring their financial well-being.
Conservatorships are typically established to protect vulnerable individuals who cannot manage their financial matters on their own, and they are subject to court oversight to ensure that the conservatee's rights and interests are upheld. In Utah, there are primarily two types of conservatorships available.
First, there is a "conservatorship of the estate," where a conservator is appointed to manage the financial affairs, assets, and property of an individual who is unable to do so themselves. Second, there is a "conservatorship of the person," where a conservator is appointed to make decisions regarding the personal care, health, and well-being of an individual who cannot make these decisions independently due to incapacity or disability.
These conservatorship types can be established separately or together, depending on the specific needs and circumstances of the individual involved, and they are subject to court oversight to ensure that the conservatee's rights and best interests are protected.
