If a couple died without a Will, what happens to their properties?

Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
If one spouse dies first, then the surviving spouse receives the property assuming the property is held in joint tenancy or community property title. If the second spouse dies, and has not transferred the property to anyone else, then the children receive the property in equal shares. Advise you obtain probate counsel if booth spouses have died.

Can I ensure a portion of my child's inheritance goes to my grandson's education?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
A trust is the best and safest way to accomplish your objective. Your son could be the trustee, if you wish. If you give the funds directly to your son, however, they are his to do with whatever he wishes. If he gives them to his son, it could be considered a gift. A trust eliminates the need for probate and makes sure your intent is clear. The trust should be drawn up by an attorney.

If my mother died without a will, can the deed be put in my name?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
Yes, you can put the title of the house in your name. However, how to address these cases is fact specific. What kind of liens? (tax? judgment?) Also, did your mother have other assets (bank account, car, etc.)?
