That's dependent on state law. Certainly a lien on the estate, but in Missouri, you can also put a lien on the estate of the grandparents.
Correct, but what would happen if the individual had nothing in their name, no will, and no estate. that invidivudal was living with elderly parents who were providing room and board

∙ 12y agoOnce the child reaches maturity, the ability to get child support paid diminishes to the point where it may not be worth pursuing. Other than that, if the child is a beneficiary of an estate or life insurance, there may be some funds coming to him or her. But, it won't be child support.
AnswerThe child's parent would have a priority claim against the decedent's estate. You should consult with an attorney or an advocate at the court as soon as possible. For added clarification, child support arrears should always be established in the court that issued the child support order because once established they do not go away.
