Single Parents

 You have the primary responsibility for ensuring the well-being and care of your children. If something happens to you while they are minors, you want to ensure you’ve made the decision about who cares for them, and how. And unlike with a married couple where you can trust the other parent will continue caring for your children in your absence, it's not so simple as a single parent.

In the most ideal scenario, your child’s other parent would be suitable to take custody of your child, if you cannot be there. But in many cases, that’s not possible, or desired. 

And, even if it is, you may want the financial resources you are leaving behind cared for by someone other than your former spouse or partner.

No matter what the scenario, as a single parent (whether your child’s other parent is in the picture or not), you need to take the steps necessary to legally document:  

• who you want to raise your child
• who you DO NOT WANT to raise your child if there are close relatives (or the other parent) whom you believe should not care for your children 
• how you would want your child raised 
• how you want your assets handled for your child 

We know you are busy and promise to make the process as simple and easy for you as possible.
