Best Answer

When a person dies intestate(without a will) the court will appoint an executor or executrix to handle the deceased's estate. Generally a judge will appoint the closets family member who is willing to accept the responsibility. After the deceased's debts and taxes have been satisfied according to their priority and to the extent payment is possible by the use of non-exempt assets, remaining property will be distributed. The state's probate succession laws apply when there is not a valid will. Probate laws differ from state-to-state especially in community property states, usually the surviving spouse is awarded the majority of assets and property.

Are there any legal contracts on binding a beneficary who has little to no relationship to the deceased to divide the insurance money between his children and the beneficiary?

I'm not an expert and I don't know what state you are in, but I would guess that whoever is named as the beneficiary on an insurance policy has absolutely no obligation to divide the money with anyone, including the children. You should probably consult with an attorney in your state.
