Kids Protection Planning

As a parent, there’s nothing more important than ensuring your children are safe, loved, and cared for—even if the unexpected happens. At The Parents Estate Planning Law Firm, we specialize in helping young families protect their kids, giving parents the tools and peace of mind to know their children will always be in trusted hands.

Our Kids Protection Plan® is a unique offering designed to address gaps in traditional estate planning, ensuring your children are never placed in the care of strangers or anyone you wouldn’t trust, even temporarily.

Why Kids Protection Planning is Important

Without a plan in place, the unimaginable could happen—decisions about your children’s care might be left to the courts or individuals who don’t share your values. This means your children could be placed with someone you don’t trust or wouldn’t want. A judge, unfamiliar with your family, will decide who will raise your kids. Even temporarily, your children could be left in the care of strangers while authorities sort things out, adding unnecessary trauma to an already difficult situation. Kids Protection Planning ensures your children are always cared for by the people you know and trust, in the way you want, giving you the peace of mind that they’ll always be safe, loved, and protected—no matter what.

How Can We Help?

We take a parent-focused approach to estate planning, offering tailored solutions to safeguard your children’s future. With our Kids Protection Plan®, we address all aspects of care and protection, ensuring no detail is overlooked.

  • Naming both short-term and long-term guardians for your children, ensuring immediate and permanent care by trusted individuals.
  • Creating legal documents that give your chosen guardians the authority to step in immediately if needed.
  • Providing caregiver instructions and an ID card for your wallet, notifying authorities of your plan in case of emergency.
  • Regular reviews to keep your plan current as your children grow and your circumstances change.
