My mom is currently going through this now with my grandma. She already has power of attorney but was told she needs conservatorship in order to sign for my grandmother on a real estate transaction. Grandma has dementia and can’t write her own name.

I’m curious about the expense b/c thus far she hasn’t incurred much costs in the path to conservatorship.
