Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

My brother and sister in law are named as co-guardians of my children and co- trustees in my will. They have divorced. What rights will she maintain? Her name has been legally changed from what it was in my will. I live in FL and the will was executed in PA.

First of all, if you live in Florida - you need to have a will and directives for Florida - not sure what PA can do for you. As to the guardians - you need to change that clause - yes you can do a codicil to update your will but really - why would you when you don't live there anymore and your homestead exemption is here in Florida. If you need assistance, please contact my office for an appointment 904-997-1031 = if nothing else - get your directives in writing. Don't end up like Terry Schiavo!
