Do I have to leave each child something when I do my estate planning?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
No, unless a child is under 18. There are certain rules when a child is under 18. Aside from that, you can leave your assets to whomever you choose. However, you should mention them, so it is clear that you know you have children then disinherit the ones you do not wish to include.

What does it mean to go through probate?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Having or not having a Will is not determinative of whether probate is necessary. Depending upon the total value of all of your uncle's assets that do not have named beneficiaries, joint tenants or held in trust will determine if a probate is necessary. You may need a simple affidavit, to proceed with a set aside petition or you may in fact require a probate to administer your uncle's assets. You probably should consult with counsel about the specific facts of your case, or you may try to navigate the probate arena on your own and utilize the forms available at the self help center at Family Court.
