Do I need a will if I only have non-probate property that will go to my son and only beneficiary? Wish to avoid probate. No real property involved.

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
If all you have is non-probate property, all you have is property which does not pass under a Will.  In that circumstance, you do not need a Will.

Does the family inure the debt the father made without their knowledge once he dies?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
The community property of your mother and father can be reached for the debt that your father incurred. When someone passes away, moreover, their estate is liable for their debts, and any property transferred without those debts being paid can still be reached by creditors to pay the debt, unless those debts are extinguished in a probate proceeding. It seems clear that any creditor of your father will be able to make a claim against the death benefits once they are received, and will be able to "follow" those benefits to whomever receives them. In any event, a person's estate does not pass automatically free and clear of any debts that person may have incurred.

Should I get an atty as 1 of 2 executors of trust, when other executor has atty?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
That seems odd if you plan to act jointly.  However, if the trust agreement does not state that you must act jointly, your sister could act without you.  If she made a mistake, you could be financially liable as well.  Perhaps you should have it reviewed by an attorney and take steps, if needed, to limit your liability.
