What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? AZ
Situation - Wife and I are in beginning stages of divorce. We are not amicable at all. My concern is who would get custody of kids if we were both to pass away? The closest living relative is her father, who according to my wife and her 3 sisters, molested them as children. This was never reported to the authorities. He was a deputy at the time and wife's mom apparently took him to cleaners in divorce settlement in lieu of pressing criminal charges. Needless to say, I want to ensure, if the unfortunate were to happen to myself and wife, he does not obtain guardianship. My family as well as the rest of hers lives in GA. May sound outlandish, but my wife is under care of psychiatrist and I have begun to question her competency and I work in a dangerous job where on the job death rate and suicide rate is extremely high. I'd like to put some sort of provision in place that would give guardianship to my brother in GA if anything happened to us.
