Legal Question in Elder Law in South Carolina
Conservators legal responsibility
My grandmother lives in an incredibly wonderful full-care facility in California, a few miles from my mother who is her conservator. My aunt lives in South Carolina and wants to move my grandmother near her. Ultimately the decision is my mother's, as the conservator, but she feels pressure from my aunt and a little from my grandmother to allow the move. Here are my questions: 1)If something bad were to happen in South Carolina, is my mother responsible? 2)If my grandmother moves, does conservatorship need to be transferred to my aunt? 3)What legal problems could my mother face? 4) What needs to be done to ensure that my mother is protected with my grandmother 3000 miles away? Thank you for any advice you can lend.

Re: Conservators legal responsibility
Your question is very confusing. What you're saying is your mother is a conservator over your grandmother who both live in California. But then you implied that someone else has the conservator or over your aunt. And if she moves to California who is responsible. That depends on the facts and the state of mind of your aunt. Basically, you need to tell us a great deal more about the situation before any of us can give you any, in my opinion, beneficial answer.
