Kids Protection Planning
Kids Protection Planning for Oklahoma Parents Who Want Clarity & Control
If you have minor children, estate planning isn't optional-it's essential. We help parents across Oklahoma put clear, legally binding plans in place so their kids are always cared for by the people they know and trust.
Whether you live in Oklahoma City, Moore, Edmond, or Mustang, we'll help you name permanent legal guardians, create emergency instructions, and give your family a plan that works if the unthinkable happens.
What's Included in a Kids Protection Plan
Legal Tools to Protect Your Children-Now & Later
Our Kids Protection Planning process includes:
- Legal Guardian Nominations - So your kids are never placed with someone you wouldn't choose
- Emergency Instructions - For temporary caregivers, first responders, or babysitters
- Health & Contact Information Cards - To alert authorities that a plan exists
- Letter to Guardians - To explain your wishes in your own words
- Custom Documents for Each Parent or Guardian - Not just a generic form
If something happens to you, these tools ensure your kids won't be left in the hands of strangers, caught in court delays, or placed in state custody while decisions are made.
Why Kids Protection Planning Matters in Oklahoma
Without a Plan, the State Decides What Happens Next
In Oklahoma, if something happens to both parents and there's no legal documentation in place, a judge will decide who takes care of your children. That could mean someone you would never choose-or even temporary placement in foster care while the court figures things out.
We've helped parents in Norman, Yukon, and throughout the metro create plans that:
- Name short- and long-term guardians
- Provide emergency instructions for babysitters, daycare, or school
- Reduce the risk of court delays or family conflict
- Give you peace of mind every time you leave the house
This planning is just as important for young families as it is for grandparents raising grandchildren or parents in blended families.
Do I still need this if I already named guardians in my will?
Yes. A will only goes into effect if you die. If you're alive but unable to care for your kids (like in an accident or emergency), the court may still have to step in unless you have a full Kids Protection Plan.
What if I have different guardians for each child?
We can help you build a plan that honors your relationships and gives clear, enforceable direction-even if your family is blended or complex.
Can my parents or siblings just take over if something happens?
Not legally-unless they've been named in writing. Without legal documents, no one has automatic authority.
What happens to our plan if we move?
We build your plan based on Oklahoma law, but we also offer lifetime support so you can make updates if you relocate or your family changes.
