Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Arizona

Re: adoptive children's rights

I need more facts than are presented here. Your question asking about "any rights concerning the will" is a little vague. A person can leave assets to anyone he desires in his will, even though the parent-child relationship has been terminated. If the parent-child relationship was terminated in an adoption proceeding, so another could adopt the child, the child would not inherit under intestacy laws, but if named in a will, could be a beneficiary. No opinion can be rendered without a look at the will. If the will says, "to my children" and the child relationship was terminated by court order, that person would not be included as a child.

This is general information and not intended as a legal opinion in this case, which can only be done by an in-person review of the will and all surrounding documents related to the case, and all pertinent facts.
