[QUOTE="Bill V, post: 987677, member: 54538"] TrainTrac, I'm also no lawyer, but I think the will would be insufficient here. The $200k + $200k cited in Redfish's example aren't part of the deceased parent's estate yet--they're benefits paid to survivors from some program (might be union related, might be insurance related, might be other--I'm not sure the source is all that relevant to the discussion). If the deceased cop has a spouse and/or child, the benefits are paid--if they don't have one and/or the other, this benefit isn't paid. And if they're not paid, then the estate has nothing to distribute via a will. Such benefits are typically legally tied to the existence of a marriage/civil union. [/QUOTE]
