You are here: Families & Children > Guardianship (Probate Court) > General Information about Guardianships > Can I name a guardian for my children?
Yes. You can write a letter naming a guardian for your children and keep it with your important papers or write in your Will who you want to be the guardian of your children when you pass away.
But if both parents are dead, the court will decide who the guardian is. The court will try to appoint the person you wanted. But, the court will also consider what is best for your child and will ask the child what s/he wants.
