If an individual is unable to make decisions about his or her care or finances, the court may appoint someone to make those decisions and/or handle their finances for them. If a minor child is involved, a guardianship is created by the appointment of a guardian to act in the minor child's best interests. The guardian must be appointed by the probate court. A conservator is the individual appointed to handle the finances of a minor child or of an individual who is unable to care for his or her own finances.
