<prompt> Human: A friend in California has recently become conservator of her elderly mother. As part of the conservatorship, the courts have ordered that the bulk of the mothers money be placed in blocked conservatorship accounts. Furthermore, they have asked that since the amount of money is large, the money be placed in multiple institutions, each with an amount under the FDIC limit.However, this friend quickly learned that some banks basically lose their shit when you ask them to open a conservatorship account. They just arent good at it. At Wells Fargo, it took them five and a half hours to get the account open, as they had to escalate to upper management and their legal department multiple times. Word on the street is that Bank of America is apparently not much better.So my question is: does anyone have a recommendation for banks that can open conservatorship accounts without much fuss? Los Angeles area banks preferred. Thanks!  <response>: I have a conservator account for my minor son at Chase. I used to work at Washington Mutual in Valencia before Chase bought them out. Chase knows how to do this with little to no trouble, they also have accounts for celebrities that are minors because they require a special type of account to protect the childs money. I honestly dont like big name banks so Id look into credit unions also, I have accounts for him there too, but in another state. As you said, FDIC only insures up to a certain amount so having the funds at different banks is better. Honestly...ask for a banker with the most experience in these accounts, this sounds like an inexperienced person, sorry for your bad experience. The branch manager can also do them.
