Is it customary that beneficiary decendancy go to direct heirs, by bloodline, of a trust when an heir dies?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
It is not a question of customary, it is a question of what the testator wanted to do. Perhaps he or she did not trust the spouse or felt that the spouse would be able to go on with his or her life and would not need the benefits of the trust. You may also talk to the trustee about whether the trustee can pay for certain necessities of the children while living with the spouse, e.g. mortgage, utilities, schooling.

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

Answered by attorney Isaac David Shutt (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Shutt Law Firm, PLLC
No, only his estate is liable for his debts. None of the family will be liable for the debts, unless someone co-signed on the debt.

What will happen if my brother and I are executors and beneficiaries to our mother's estate but step-father is still alive?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
The terms of your mother's will determine you and your brother's rights, obligations, and duties with regard to settling her estate and the division of her property. If your mother is still mentally capable of doing so, it is a good idea to talk to her about these issues now while she is still alive. The division of her personal property in the home is something that she could do while living, and it would be up to her to include or exclude her husband from the process. It sounds as though your mother is quite ill, so this may not be possible. If you have a copy of your mother's will, it may be a good idea to take it to a local attorney who is knowledgeable about probate law to discuss your concerns.
