How to remove a conservator?
Conservatorships vary in terms of the authority given to the conservator. But it does seem that, even if your friend’s conservator was given broad authority that he/she is abusing that authority and exerting more control over your friend’s life than is warranted. I agree that you should consult with an attorney. Conservators can be removed–although if it is a family member, that will be more difficult. You might try contacting the protection and advocacy agency in your state for free advice and/or assistance. Or, better yet, have your friend contact them. Go to http://ndrn.org/ and use the Get Help in Your State menu.
