Cal. Prob. Code § 2647 — Compensation of Guardian, Conservator, and Attorney is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
No attorney fees may be paid from the estate of the ward or conservatee without prior court order. The estate of the ward or conservatee is not obligated to pay attorney fees established by any engagement agreement or other contract until it has been approved by the court. This does not preclude an award of fees by the court pursuant to this chapter even if the contractual obligations are unenforceable pursuant to this section.
