Guardianship
   Guardianship (Separate Website)
We don’t like to believe that we – or someone we care about – will become incapable of making health, personal or financial decisions because of illness or disability. But it does happen. Guardianship isn’t something that most people plan for, but it can be an essential protection if someone cannot take care of themselves or their property.

   Divorce and Insurance: How to retain your child's health care coverage (Separate Website)
Mom and Dad don't live together anymore. Your child has two beds, two sets of teddy bears, two groups of friends, and two homes. And, as the years go by, these two homes may be further and further apart. It's important that your child has health coverage in both homes. But how will you achieve this? And who will pay for it? Just one trip to the emergency room may result in many large medical bills. Health care costs can add up quickly, so you'll want to make provisions for your child's continued health coverage as soon as possible.
