ODVA can be appointed as conservator for a veteran or a veteran’s surviving spouse, minor children, helpless adult children or dependent parents. A conservator takes on full responsibility for the protected person’s estate: setting a personal budget that pays for care, personal needs, dependent support and property upkeep, applying for every benefit the protected person may be entitled to, and investing or conserving unused funds. ODVA conservators are experts in VA law and work closely with family members.
Contact ODVA on 503-373-2085 or 800-692-9666, or 503-373-2217 for the hearing impaired, to discuss having a conservator appointed.
Medical documentation of the incapacity, the protected person’s VA benefit information and financial records, and proof of your relationship to them.
