Which is better to do, a living trust or a last will?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Trusts generally do not get administered well, and that causes additional costs. The best thing to do is to go to a lawyer (best if it's a different one for each of you) and have a good estate plan drawn up.

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

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
No, probate is not automatic. Venue is appropriate in the state where the decedent was domiciled at the time of death. There can be issues in determining which state that is. Once that has been clarified, an interested party files an application or petition for probate. If your father died in another state and there are no assets there, you can open probate in Michigan, in the county where there are assets. If he was married, the wife would have priority for appointment as personal representative. Feel free to visit my website. I have a detailed description of the probate process posted there. I am very sorry for your loss.

How do I go about changing the name on a property deed?

Kimberly Demetrice French
Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
It depends on why you are changing the name. Since you posted in the estate planning law area, I will assume the original grantee on the deed is deceased. In order to have property taken out of a deceased person's name, that person's will must be submitted to probate (if he or she died with a valid will). If that person died intestate (without a will), there are other ways to handle this problem, namely via a small estate administration or an affidavit of heirship. Please make sure to contact an attorney to have a more in-depth discussion of the property deed in question.
