What Is a Guardian or Conservator
Bond?
A guardian or conservator bond is a court‑required surety bond that ensures a guardian or conservator will manage the finances and personal affairs of a minor or incapacitated adult responsibly and according to state law.
Courts require this bond to protect the vulnerable individual (the “ward”) from:
- Financial mismanagement
- Fraud or misuse of funds
- Neglect or misconduct
- Failure to follow court orders
If you’ve been appointed as a guardian of the person, guardian of the estate, or conservator, the court may require this bond before you can begin acting in that role.
Guardian Bond Amount & Cost
Bond amounts are set by the court and typically reflect the value of the ward’s assets.
Your cost depends on:
- Bond amount
- Credit history
- State requirements
- Complexity of the guardianship
Most applicants qualify instantly with competitive rates.
