Do you have kids? If your answer is yes, read on.
Here’s a brief and to the point blog post from a Minnesota estate planning blog regarding kids and having a Will. Bottom line, if you have kids you should have a Will, end of story.

From the same author, Minnesota Lawyer Jennifer Gumbel, here are two more posts about kids and Wills. One is about being a new parent and options related to Wills and Estate Planning and Trusts for children. http://minnesotaestateplanningandprobate.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html. Another post is about ownership of property and who gets what if one parent dies. http://minnesotaestateplanningandprobate.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html.
Unfortunately, it isn’t easy to find information on divorce and Wills and Estate Planning, at least not on any of the Minnesota Family Law Blogs that I follow. In the future, I hope to add more information about the connection between divorce, kids and Wills.
