INTERESTING OBSERVATION ABOUT THE GUARDIAN AD LITEM ROLE BEING A GOOD INTRODUCTION TO PROBATE PRACTICE IN GENERAL.
It was a very helpful seminar. I do not handle conservatorships normally. However, I am involved in two personal injury matters in which conservators were appointed so I took this course to better understand the issues in this setting. It would be helpful to have a program that addressed probate issues involving personal injury matters. These would included conservatorships, guardianships and minor settlements.
