Yes --but only for those items which are in the trust. If everything is in the trust or governed by a DPOA, you should only need conservatorship if there is no successor trustee or DPOA agent -- or if one of them is robbing your mother. You might want to consult a local elder law attorney using the Find a Lawyer function on the website of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (www.naela.org)
