What it does
Existing law authorizes a court to appoint private legal counsel for a ward, a proposed ward, a conservatee, or a proposed conservatee in specified guardianship, conservatorship, and other protective proceedings if the court determines the person is not otherwise represented by legal counsel and that the appointment would be helpful to the resolution of the matter or is necessary to protect the person's interests.
