Where mentally incapacitated persons have complex and varied estates and applicants are antagonistic, the court will appoint independent professional committees and require only sufficient pre‑application property information to enable appointment; detailed forensic asset identification should be undertaken by the appointed committees. Costs will be apportioned to prevent estates bearing inflated costs caused by adversarial conduct, and the court will make specific orders against parties who improperly prolonged proceedings.
