Re: life insurance benefits

Is her grandmother still alive? If not, would need to look at policy to see if secondary beneficiary or other provision in case original beneficiary not around. If none, then would go to his estate and the owner would be determined by the residue of his will. If no will, then by the line of intestacy in the AR statutes.

I hope this covers what you were asking. If no beneficiary and no will, email me and I will try to explain the line of intestacy that it might go through.
