Probate Code
Guardians and conservators (aka guardians of the estate) are generally entitled to reasonable compensation for their work. State statutes limit the fees to a certain amount which cannot be exceeded without prior court approval. Others just permit reasonable compensation and allow courts to interpret what constitutes excessive compensation.
Guardians an conservators are each entitled to reasonable compensation for services rendered and reimbursement for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in the exercise of their assigned duties and powers, including reimbursement for room, board, and clothing personally provided to the ward.
