What is the name of your state? Iowa
Is it legally binding if a custodial parent of minor children names a guardian for them, other than their NCP, in the last will and testament? Or, in order to make it so, must there be a legal agreement with the NCP? The children have little contact with the NCP and do not want to live with him and his new wife in the event of their mother's death. They wish to stay with their step father, half brother and step brothers. Would their wishes only come into play if they are of a certain age?
