  1. The fiduciary may receive reasonable compensation for services rendered. The court shall set the actual compensation to be paid, taking into account:
    1. The complexity of the property of the minor or person with a disability;
    2. The amount of time the fiduciary spent in performing fiduciary duties;
    3. Whether the fiduciary had to take time away from the fiduciary's normal occupation;
    4. Whether the services provided the minor or person with a disability are those the fiduciary should normally have provided had there been no need for a fiduciary, and
    5. Such other matters as the court deems appropriate.
  2. No person, other than a person performing temporary fiduciary services while a proceeding is pending, who has not been appointed by the court to serve as a fiduciary shall receive any compensation for fiduciary services; however, this does not preclude payment for the necessary care of the minor or person with a disability.
  3. No compensation to the fiduciary shall be paid without prior court approval.
