What if both parents die what happens to children?
Officially they are wards of the state until a probate process is commenced. The court can appoint a temporary guardian who will have legal control over the children until a permanent guardianship is established or the children are legally adopted. It is important for parents of minor children to have a will and designate a desired guardian for their children after discussing it with the named guardian. The court will usually appoint that person unless there is a compelling objection made at the hearing for appointment. If no guardian is named in a will any interested adult can petition the court.

The parents should execute a will that specifically names the person(s) they want to be appointed as the legal guardian of their minor children in the case of their untimely deaths.

Generally, the court will follow the wishes of the parents when making the appointment unless a serious objection is made and evidence provided as to why that person should not be appointed the legal guardian. Parents of minor children should always make this decision and commit it to writing so the court will not need to decide for them who will raise their children.
