Conservatorship of a Minor – Laws in Massachusetts

Some minors may find themselves the recipients of large amount of funds and property before they are legally able to control or manage the responsibilities that come with those assets or funds. This can occur if a minor’s parents are deceased and leave him or her the estate or under similar circumstances. Because a minor can’t legally manage a large estate or be left to make important financial decisions on his or her own, a conservator is appointed to handle financial matters for that minor. The process of filing for and acting as a conservator of a minor can be complex, challenging, and entails a great deal of responsibility. Shapiro Law Group, PC, has the experience and understanding of Massachusetts probate and family court law to help all parties involved in the conservatorship of a minor.
