Neither. If your mom is unable to manage her financial affairs and she has not executed a trust or power of attorney, then a family member will need to petition the court to be the conservator. If no family member is willing to petition the court then Big Brother will do it and become the conservator of her estate, meaning the government will take everthing she has.
