How can I be a temporary guardian to my minor daughter for her to get the death benefits?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Since you are the child's mother, you can't also become her guardian. A guardian is someone who serves in place of a parent. However, it may be, since your daughter is still a minor, that the insurance company is asking you to serve as the trustee (overseer) of a trust that will hold that money in safe-keeping until your daughter reaches the age of majority If that's the case, a bank can probably help set up the trust for you.

If you do not have any beneficiaries listed on your investments and you pass, does that money end up with the state?

Answered by attorney John R Ceci (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at John Ceci PLLC
It depends on the wording of the beneficiary designation. It may also depend on whether the investment company has a policy that controls if there is no living beneficiary. But the norm would be for investment monies to be paid to a person's estate before being paid to the State.
