How do I leave everything to my kids?

Answered by attorney Victor L. Waid (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Assuming you have little or no assets, and did not acquire any community property during the current marriage, your children of a prior marriage would be entitle to receive everything unless you have jointly owned assets of any kind held with your present wife, in which case she would survive to those assets. You could draw up a will or have one prepared to accomplish your objective.

Would judges follow a signed will over one that was not?

Answered by attorney Jonathan W. Barlow
Estate Planning lawyer at Clear Counsel Law Group
Nevada law has clear requirements to create a valid will. Obviously, one of these requirements is that the will must be signed by the testator. If you believe that the 2010 will was not signed by the deceased (that it is a fraudulent will), you must follow specific procedures to contest the validity of the will. There are specific timeframes to do so and failing to follow these timeframes could bar you from contesting the will at a later date even if it is a fraudulent will. If the 2010 will is not signed at all by anyone, then it obviously would not be accepted as a valid will by any court. Because these issues are very dependent on the facts of each case, a competent probate attorney would be able to advise you about your rights and ensure that the proper will is recognized by the court.
