Limited Conservatorship Services in Orange County, California

At LDA Legal Solutions, we assist families and caregivers in navigating the process of establishing a limited conservatorship in Orange County, California. Our mission is to provide professional, compassionate, and affordable document preparation support for those seeking to protect the rights and well-being of adults with developmental disabilities.

What Is a Limited Conservatorship?

A limited conservatorship is a legal arrangement that allows a responsible adult (the conservator) to assist another adult (the conservatee) who has a developmental disability. This arrangement helps ensure the conservatee maintains as much independence as possible while still receiving support in important areas of life, such as healthcare, education, and daily decision-making.

Limited conservatorships are designed to balance protection with independence, giving families peace of mind while respecting the individual’s rights and abilities.

You can find more information and official resources on the Orange County court’s website: Orange County Courts

Who Needs a Limited Conservatorship?

A limited conservatorship may be needed when an adult (age 18 or older) cannot manage certain personal or financial responsibilities due to a developmental disability such as:

• Autism
• Down syndrome
• Cerebral palsy
• Epilepsy
• Intellectual disability

Every situation is unique. The court reviews each case carefully to determine what specific areas of assistance the conservator will have authority over while preserving the conservatee’s independence wherever possible.
