Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

Designating Custody to Grandparents

My wife and I have a 2 1/2 year old girl. We would like to ensure she is taken care of if both of us were to pass away. Is there a legal document where my wife and I can designate certain grandparents custody if my wife and I were to pass away at the same time while our girl was still a minor?

Re: Designating Custody to Grandparents

Yes, put it in your wills (1 separate will each) and the court will consent to your wishes UNLESS the persons you chose are bad for the child.
