Generally, an irrevocable living trust is created in order to transfer assets from a parent's estate to the trust in order to avoid inheritance taxes on the parent's estate, protect assets from creditors, make charitable contributions and other purposes. The key thing about the irrevocable trust is that the trustor (the trust maker) can not later change the terms of the trust once the documents have been signed.

Usually their standard of living is lowered because now there are two households instead of one which means two rents or mortgages as well as the utilities for each. In addition, many times the non-custodial parent doesn't pay child support in a timely manner, if at all.

Biological and legally adopted children generally have the same rights in their parent's estate if their parent dies intestate, or, without a will. Children do not inherit an interest in property that was held jointly with a surviving spouse. However, they may inherit an interest in property held solely by the decedent. You can check the laws of intestacy in your state in the related question below.

That all depends on the wording in the will.Generally, there are a couple of types of devise that are commonly used in wills. If the will provides that the property shall go to the siblings or to the survivor of them, the surviving sibling will take all. However, if the will says the property shall go to the siblings or the issue of a sibling who predeceased the testator then the deceased sibling's share will go to her children, if any.On the other hand, if the will is silent as to the distribution in the case of a deceased child of the testator then the deceased siblings share will pass as intestate property to the legal next of kin of the testator. In your case that will be the child of the deceased sibling.You should consult with an attorney who can review the situation and determine what the law is in your state. In most cases, an attorney should be handling the probate of the estate if there is property in the estate that was solely owned by the testator.

When someone dies without a will the state laws of intestacy provide for the distribution of their property. Generally, if your parent is deceased you would inherit your parent's share of your grandparent's estate. If your parent is not deceased then you have no right to a share of your grandparent's estate. If your grandparent left a will and the will is allowed you have no other right to their estate.

Generally, if there is no surviving spouse the property goes the decedent's children and the children of any deceased child. See related question link.
