Q. My husbands father passed here in Nevada. Will states 50/50 between he and his sister. She refuses to uphold the will.

16 February 2021

A: I agree with Counsel below. In most circumstances in NV, the Will needs to go through Probate before the assets can be transferred to the heirs. Your husband really should meet with NV Counsel who can discuss his rights.

Q. How to obtain the most recent trust papers for the beneficiaries from financial advisor

4 December 2020

A: More information is necessary to answer this with certainty, as there are a few factors involved. Is/are the Trustor/s deceased? If not, then the beneficiaries are most likely not entitled to a copy of the Trust until their death, depending upon the terms of the Trust. If the Trustor/s are deceased, then under Nevada Revised Statute 164.021the beneficiaries should get notice from the Successor Trustee with a copy of the Trust, advising them of their right to challenge the terms of the Trust as to their inheritance. If the Financial Advisor is not the Successor Trustee, you need to contact the Successor Trustee - perhaps a certified letter, quoting the Statute.

Q. If my executor is my 100% TOD beneficiary, can I also designate that others will receive $$ gifts from that same amount?

11 September 2020

A: My suggestion would be to have TOD on all of your accounts, and split them between all of your beneficiaries in whatever percentages you desire. If all of your assets are liquid, you can avoid Probate simply by naming beneficiaries on your accounts. If you don't have TOD, then the funds become part of your estate, and will more than likely go through Probate (depending upon the value). If you do that, then your Will dictates how your Executor disposes of those assets. If you leave all of your funds to your executor as TOD, then those funds become his/hers to do with as they wish, which includes keeping all of the money. Also, even if you name your beneficiary TOD and he/she does later split the funds per your wishes, those funds become a 'gift' from your executor so they could have gift tax implications (again depending upon the value).
