Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Minnesota
Step-children in my will
Can I include my step children's names in my will under ''my children'' so they will inherit the same percentage as my own children in the event of my death?

Re: Step-children in my will
Step children would not be included in the term "my children" in a will. You would have to include them specifically by name since they are not your legal children by birth or adoption.
