Child Guardianship

How do I choose a guardian for my minor children in my will?

You can name a guardian for your minor children in your will by including a guardianship clause that specifies your chosen person. Consider factors like the potential guardian's age, financial stability, parenting philosophy, and relationship with your children. It's helpful to name both a primary guardian and an alternate in case your first choice cannot serve. Remember that your nomination is a strong preference, but the court makes the final decision based on the child's best interests.
