South Carolina Opening Minor Conservatorships are a type of legal guardianship that is established by the South Carolina Probate Court to protect minor children and their assets. The conservatorship is set up to provide for the care, protection, and support of a minor child, including the management of the child’s assets. There are two types of South Carolina Opening Minor Conservatorships: full conservatorship and limited conservatorship. A full conservatorship allows a conservator to make all necessary decisions regarding the minor’s life, including medical decisions, education, and financial decisions. The conservator is appointed by the court and must follow the orders of the court when making decisions. A limited conservatorship allows a conservator to make only certain decisions regarding the minor’s life. These decisions include education, medical, and financial decisions, but the conservator is limited in the decisions they can make by court order. In both types of conservatorships, the conservator is responsible for managing the minor’s assets and ensuring that the minor is properly cared for. The conservator must also file annual reports with the court regarding the minor’s assets and progress.
