Conservatorships exist for times when a person no longer has the ability to care for themselves. Conservatorships can be of the person, of the estate, or both. In all instances, the probate court appoints a fiduciary (the conservator) to manage the affairs of the conservatee. Many times, there is conflict over who should be appointed the conservator. The conflict can arise between family members who seek to be conservator, or it can arise when the court decides to appoint a third-party conservator over a family member. Conservatorship proceedings can be complex, due to the delicate nature of the proposed conservatee, family dynamics, and the unique procedures and processes that encompass the proceedings. As your attorneys, we not only seek to assist you in navigating these legal complexities, we also seek to bring a quick resolution and harmony to what can otherwise be a stressful and emotional process.

We handle a wide range of personal injury matters including car accidents, pedestrian accidents, slip and fall injuries, wrongful death accidents, and many other cases in which an individual has suffered an injury due to the negligence of another.
When these accidents occur without warning, you may unexpectedly face the need for medical treatment, payment of medical bills, payment for property damages, extended time away from work, and an uncertain future. If the accident that led to your injury occurred because of another party’s carelessness, you are entitled to seek recovery for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, it’s important that you contact a skilled and knowledgeable personal injury attorney immediately. Without a competent attorney to assist you in navigating your personal injury case, the process can be intimidating and stressful. Insurance companies will often minimize your injury and use unfair tactics to avoid paying you just compensation.
At Great Oaks Lawyers, we'll take care of you start to finish, litigating your case as the experienced advocate on your side. Our goal is to achieve the best possible outcome for you, while providing the highest degree of service and professionalism. If you would like a free consultation regarding your personal injury matter, please do not hesitate to contact our office today.
