Estate Planning for Parents of Young Children

Protect Your Kids. Prepare for the Unexpected.

As a parent, your number one priority is protecting your children. But what happens if something happens to you?

It’s a scary thought—but without a clear, legally binding plan, the courts—not you—will decide:

• Who raises your kids
• Who controls the money you leave behind
• How your assets are managed or spent

At LifePlan Legal AZ, we help Arizona parents create simple, effective estate plans to protect their kids—no matter what happens.

What Happens Without a Plan?

If you pass away or become incapacitated without a plan in place:

• A judge (who doesn’t know your family) will decide who gets guardianship of your children.
• The person chosen may not be someone you trust—or someone your kids even know well.
• Your kids could end up in temporary foster care during the legal process.
• A court could control how your money is managed until your child turns 18—even if it’s for things you wouldn’t have agreed to.

What Estate Planning Does for You

We create plans that help you:

• Name a legal guardian for your children (and backups, just in case)
• Set up a trust to manage your money for your kids, on your terms
• Choose someone you trust to make financial and medical decisions if you can't
• Avoid probate, delays, and unnecessary court involvement
