Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
In my mom will she name me and my 3 siblings as beneficaries. My question is if i should pass, would my share go to my childrens? Although it was not stated in the will, just said should be divided equally.

The answer depends on the will's wording, but the default position under the law is that your share would go to your children if you predeceased your mother.
I concur with Mr. Johnson, but it is certainly suggestive that you draw up your own estate planning documents to ensure that your estate is passed along properly as well.
