Do I have to leave each child something when I do my estate planning?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
No, you do not need to leave anything to any of your children. However, you must mention them in your will. Therefore, for example, "I have four children, namely A, B, C, and D. I give my entire estate to E and F." If you want, you could even throw in, "I give nothing to my issue." Don't put in your reasons.

If my husband died and left his house to his kids in a will, am I still entitled to half ownership of the house?

David L. Leon
Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
It depends on a few things. Were you on title to the house? Did you buy the house during the marriage? If you have a community property interest in the house, he can't give it away. Also, if it's your homestead, you may still have occupancy rights to the house.

Who has the legal rights to a deceased person's car?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
Sounds like a pretty open-and-shut case to me. I can't even begin to think of how a suit by your nephew could involve a vehicle that has not been used in 18 years. Even then, if your father has been sued, he needs to consider retaining a lawyer. At a minimum, the attorney could help your father timely file an Answer to the suit, assert any of a potential number of affirmative defenses and likely get the nephew's claims dismissed fairly quickly.
