FAQ
My answer, in short, is that in Nevada having a will is not enough to keep a person out of probate court at their death. A will is a legal instrument that determines how assets are to be divided at a person's death. Wills are an effective way to accomplish this goal.
However, if a person only uses a will, a probate will be required for the distribution of those assets that do not automatically transfer to another person, such as with real property. With only a will, children and other beneficiaries can be stuck with a time consuming and expensive probate case.
Obtain a blank small estate affidavit form. In most cases, you can find it by visiting the probate court website. Note that this should be the court located in the county in which the decedent lived. Most county websites offer a self-help center where the form can be downloaded online.
Trusts Can Help You Avoid Probate Most of the time, Nevada residents do this by creating revocable living trusts. This type of trust is organized and then handed over to a trustee upon the death of the person who created the trust. The trustee then has the right to distribute the property after the decedent's passing.
If a creditor wishes to file a claim against the estate, they must do so in writing and provide documentation of the debt. The claim must be filed with the probate court and a copy must be sent to the executor or administrator of the estate.
In Nevada, the small estate affidavit is valid for estates worth less than $25,000, not including the value of any vehicles. The estate also must not include any real property, such as a home or land. The limit is higher, $100,000, if there is a surviving spouse.
