Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia
Living Will and Child Custody Matters
My husband and I have a 3 year old daughter. We do not have a living will. If we should perish in an accident, what would happen to our daughter? We both have large families, would it be a court battle to see who would take care of her and our estate?

Re: Living Will and Child Custody Matters
A living will has nothing to do with custody of your daughter. However, I recommend a living will as well as a durable healthcare power of attorney. You should also have a regular Will, wherein you can state your wishes about custody of your daughter.
