As a charitable entity, Bettys’ Hope aims to ensure that every person facing, or in conservatorships is represented by an attorney who is trained, supervised, and held accountable for their misfeasance, or even malfeasance, as the case may be.

Presently, there is no agency, person, or entity at all to report concerns about the competence and efficacy of “Court Appointed Counsel.” There is nominal training and absolutely no supervision of ‘court-appointed counsel.” In fact, in Los Angeles County, the judges depend on “reports” by these lawyers to inform them and. Instruct them as to what to do.

Bettys’ Hope’s mission begins with creating a transformative mentoring program, and ensuring in-depth training for legal professionals representing persons facing or in a conservatorship.
