What do I need to do to give property over to someone else?

Jeremiah D Raxter
Answered by attorney Jeremiah D Raxter (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Raxter Law
Depending on how recently you inherited the property, or if you haven't accepted the gift you can disclaim your interest. Without more facts it is impossible to give you a clear answer. Good luck in your search for an attorney.

Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Probate is the process by which a person's will is given effect: it governs the disposition of someone's estate when they pass away. Frequently, this includes a house.

How much SS will I get as x spouse?

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
The "spouse benefit" referred to by the quoted language is one-half of your former spouse's benefit, not his actual benefit amount. "Spouse benefit" means the benefit payable to a person's spouse (or former spouse, in this case). If your individual benefit under your record is higher than the spouse benefit payable under your former spouse's record, which is one-half his benefit, then you would only receive your individual benefit. So it sounds like you are getting the maximum amount you are entitled to.
