What happens to my youngest daughter’s share of my estate if I die before she’s 18?

What happens to my youngest daughter’s share of my estate if I die before she’s 18?

No, your ex-husband would not get your assets, but he would be able to control your youngest daughter’s share of your estate. If you were to die without a will, your probate assets would pass under the laws of “intestacy.” Your ex-husband is no longer a relative and gets no benefit under the intestacy laws of any state.
