What makes a limited conservatorship different?
No two adults with developmental disabilities are the same, so a one-size-fits-all approach like general conservatorship may not be necessary or appropriate.
California law recognizes this and offers a "limited" conservatorship designed specifically to provide support tailored to the areas where the conservatee genuinely needs assistance due to their disability. These areas may include crucial decisions about where to live, signing contracts, choosing education and vocational training options, managing finances, and making informed choices regarding medical treatment.
