Re: Parental custody
The mother can (and should) have a provision in her Will that specifies who she wants to have custody of the children. It does not guarantee that that person will get custody, but it certainly helps them if a custody battle arises later.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
