LISA ON THE LAW 3/3/25 Filing Wills, Advance Beneficiary Distributions, Probate Fees, Joint Deeds & Living Trusts

Lisa Wexler answers questions about how long wills are kept on file, what information is available, and if a will is left open after 15 years do beneficiaries still get what was left to them? How do executors know if they can make advance distributions to beneficiaries? Why should you ask the court's decision? What is an executor's authority to settle estates for medical bills? What is an estate sales tax? What is the gross taxable estate? What do probate fees subsidize? Why create joint deeds or a living trust? Will wills always say how property is disposed of?
