When a couple owns a lot of property in Georgia and one dies does all the property go to the spouse?
In Georgia, whether all property goes to the surviving spouse depends on how the property is titled and whether the deceased spouse left a will. If the property is jointly owned with the right of survivorship, it automatically passes to the surviving spouse. However, if the property is solely in the deceased spouse's name and there is no will, Georgia's intestacy laws dictate that the property may be divided among the surviving spouse and any children. It is advisable to consult an attorney for specific legal guidance in such situations.

The surviving spouse may inherit a portion of the deceased spouse's separate property, but this can vary based on the state's laws and whether any children or other heirs are involved. It's advisable for the surviving spouse to consult a legal professional for guidance on their specific situation.
Is a deceased father's ownership rights of a vehicle distributed through probate to his heirs?
The ownership of any vehicle is determined by the titling of said vehicle. If a married couple resided in a community property state and the vehicle was titled in one or both names at the time of the spouse's death, the vehicle belongs to the surviving spouse. In non CP states the probate laws apply, although it is a general rule that at least one vehicle is the property of the surviving spouse. Both situations are based upon the vehicle not having a lien, either for the original loan or other matters. If a vehicle is not owned freely and clearly at the time of the owner's death, the lending contract must be reaffirmed or the vehicle becomes a part of the probate procedure and succession laws apply.
