Q: If a person under conservatorship wants to transfer/change or terminate his conservator, what is needed to do so?
A: Return to the court who ordered the Conservatorship to seek a change of Conservator. A written motion would be required in a form as provided by the court. Make certain your reasons for the change are solid, such as having proof of improper handling of the Estate or Person under Conservatorship. The court will go through the same steps taken to establish the conservatorship as it will to change it. The court will appoint an attorney for the Conserved person or bring back a previously appointed attorney for that person. That attorney would than assist with the determination and argument for the change. Hearings would be held on the motion on a determination made. Costs may be involved.
