Visitation Litigation in Probate Conservatorship Cases: Pasadena Lawyers
Family law and Probate Law often intersect. In matters involving visitation of the elderly, our lawyers are experts in obtaining visitation orders in conservatorship matters relating to visitation of the elderly.
You should note that California and Federal Law have laws which allow friends and family to visit the elderly person in hospitals or convalescent homes, and to take and accept private telephone calls.
Elderly visitation petitions and cases relating to elders and disabled persons, are typically filed in probate court in the context of a conservatorship, despite the fact that they involve family matters. As aggressive probate and family law attorneys we can file petitions obtaining the right to visit. Temporary orders can often be granted before a trial or judgment.
As of July 2015, Governor Brown signed a bill granting access to children of elderly regarding visitation. AB 1085 would give judges authority to direct, or grant, a conservator the power to enforce senior’s right to receive visitors, telephone calls, and personal mail. This will be an important mechanism for families attempting to connect with elders for what is often the last time. The bill will also require caretakers to give notice of an elder’s death to certain family members.
