Re: Custody
A person is allowed to name anyone as a beneficiary in his will. There is no requirement of a provable relationship. If, however, a person dies without a will, then his assets are distributed to his surviving spouse and children, subject to other judicial remedies. Consult the attorney who is preparing your will for further clarification. It is also recomended that you have a testamentary trust set up in your will for the benefit of your children.
