What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? General US law
My friends and I were having a discussion and we couldn't figure this out.
Dad gets divorced from mom, court order says that child must be sole beneficiary of life insurance policy.
Now we know that a child cannot inherit if they are under 18 and the inheritance would be placed in a trust etc.
However, what if dad gets remarried? When I have done life insurance with work it always says that the beneficiary must be the spouse, if not then the spouse has to sign off on the policy. How would this affect the above court order?
