When it comes to avoiding probate, families have a few options. A deceased person’s estate will not go through probate if their total assets are under $20,000 and they do not own real estate. If a house is jointly owned by multiple “joint tenants” upon one tenant’s death, then the other tenant will assume ownership without going through probate. These are just a few examples of how some assets will avoid probate entirely.
If you or a loved one’s estate is required to go through probate, our lawyers can create a plan to minimize your time and monetary investment. A living trust can help you transfer ownership of property and assets without the drawn out legal process. The trust becomes the owner of a person’s property, which means that upon a person’s death the property will not go through probate.
Depending on your situation, there are many ways for an estate to avoid probate. Our experienced lawyers can review your case and determine the best way for you to move forward. You can schedule your consultation with our trusted attorneys by calling 702-789-1422. We are also available via email.
