Estate Planning Helps Avoid Foster Care Situations

How? If the unthinkable happens – both parents died and they had not taken the time to prepare their Wills naming guardians for their children – there could be a battle between the families over who gets the children.  While the battle is going on and the Judge is trying to decide where the best place is for the children, he may put them into a foster home pending his decision.

Remember –  Tragedy is not always avoidable, but adding further heartache and turmoil is.  Where there’s a Will there’s a way to assure a child of the security of home they are familiar with.
