NEW ARIZONA PROBATE RULES REQUIRE TRAINING FOR SELF REPRESENTED FIDUCIARIES
What in the world does that mean? If you want to represent yourself in your own Probate proceeding or Guardianship/Conservatorship proceeding for an adult or minor, Arizona now requires that any non-licensed person be required to go through some training to get you prepared for your duties as a Personal Representative in the case of a Probate. In the case of of a Guardianship or Conservator of a Minor or Adult, Arizona now requires some training before you are appointed the Guardian or Conservator.
