Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
my son's father and I are not married and live in different states. Our son lives with me. How do I make sure that if I die, my parents get custody of my son?
1 Answer from Attorneys
You can designate your parents as guardians through a will. If the Father did not object, such would be sufficient. However, if he wanted to retain custody, your parents would have to file for guardianship at the time.
We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options for trying to make this as strong a possibility as possible. Would the Father agree to such? If so, we could bind him to that agreement.
One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.
Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gina or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation.
