Professional conflicts occur when exploitative for-profit conservatorship firms appointed by the court or attorneys gain control of the elderly or vulnerable persons financial affairs. Conservatorship abuse is a is a national crises and has been for decades . The toxic conservatorships are further compounded when they knowingly retain psychologicaly abusive and exploitative primary care providers, compromised estate planning fiduciaries as vendors and the same behaviors that necessitated the court appointing the conservatorship in the first place continues.
It is shocking a probate judge allows this put it happens. Associated organizations were for-profit Guardian,Conservator or Trustee firms become members, board members or presidents such as State Bar associations, planned giving, endowments, estate planning councils, accounting and related geriatric service councils creates a veneer of credibility for future clients and the courts. In the circumstances of predatory or toxic conservatorships these “on the surface” organizational memberships are used to discredit family or friends of the vulnerable person whom have legitimate verifiable grievances and evidence of the Conservators repeated fiduciary breaches or wrong doing. These membership are also effective intimidation positions for opposing council especially if the State Bar pressures their other Bar licensed members due to the ranking members influence within the State Bar leadership roles. These board positions can be leveraged to create bias and sabotage the judicial process when repeating wrong doing and intimidation is involved.
