What happens if the conservator dies or otherwise cannot serve?
Generally, conservatorship does not terminate at the death or incapacity of the conservator. The death or incapacity of the conservator does not change or eliminate the conservatee’s physical, mental, or other condition that originally caused the need for conservatorship. It does necessitate the prompt replacement of the conservator, which is usually initiated by the attorney of record (for the previous conservator).
