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

Daniel J. Pingelton
Answered by attorney Daniel J. Pingelton
Estate Planning lawyer at The Pingelton Law Firm
It's probably the most common pattern, but it all depends on what the person who created the trust desired. Unfortunately, sometimes a person will just follow a form pattern without someone explaining exactly what is happening. Hopefully that did not happen here. A spouse might be provided for it, for example, the person creating the trust was very close to him/her, and wanted the spouse to receive something regardless of whether she remained married to the descendant.

You can set up multiple living trusts to hold different properties. You should retain counsel to do this as there are some things that you will need to do with each of the trusts.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

You should speak with an attorney in the state of residence of the Decedent. Also if he owned real property in another state an attorney there should be consulted. Without more details the response to your question would have many alternatives and outcomes. Best of luck to you.
