<p class="MsoNormal">Naming an alternate beneficiary is not contemplated under the law. It will not have any effect, and I might even worry that it would cause the initial designation of the primary beneficiary to fail. This is what Wills are for.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello listmates,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have prepared a few Transfer on Death Deeds, but this is my first where the Grantor is requesting that we include an alternate beneficiary. In reviewing the statute it appears that there is no provision for naming an alternate, non-concurrent
beneficiary. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If I include alternate beneficiary language in the deed will it have any effect?
