How can we get the funds to pay funeral expenses from the estate?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
Unfortunately, the money doesn't belong to the estate, it belongs to the brother. The policy is simply a contract between your mother and the insurance policy to pay money to the beneficiary. The policy may contain language to the effect that if the brother is unavailable, then the funds will go to a second (contingent ) beneficiary.

What is the difference between guardianship and conservatorship?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
In Nevada we refer to a guardianship to address both personal issues and financial issues. In other states like California, they use the term conservatorship to refer to financial matters. To establish a guardianship, it is necessary to commence an action in court. Guardianships are court monitored.
