Can a funeral home be sued for not giving me options?

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
Most likely, no. The funeral home offers certain services. If it does not provide other services, it shouldn't generally be responsible for telling you about the existence of those other services.

How can I give custody of my house to my kids?

Brian Chew
Answered by attorney Brian Chew
Estate Planning lawyer at OC Wills and Trust Attorneys
Rather than give your home to your kids, you may want to consider having an irrevocable trust drafted on your behalf and place your home into the trust. Your children can be made to be the trustees of the trust. While they will be in charge of the house, you may retain certain right to the home. Also, if the receive the house after you pass from the trust, they will likely not have to pay any taxes when they sell the house. However if you give them the house, they ma have to pay a capital gains tax on any profit made from the sale of the house. The profit from the sale will be determined by home much the home sold for less how much you paid for it when you originally bought it. Talk to a qualified attorney on how an irrevocable trust can help your situation.
