WHAT IS A PROBATE?
The purpose of probate is to transfer assets and deal with the creditors of the decedent.
![Page 21: Well, I’ll Get Around to it.... WHO NEEDS AN ESTATE PLAN? EVERYONE!](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d925503460f94a79034/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
DIVORCE
Ownership of real property by a husband and a wife as joint tenants changes to ownership as tenants in common if the couple is divorced. After a divorce if one marriage partner dies before changing the title to the property, the decedent’s interest in the property automatically passes to his or her heirs rather than to the former spouse.
![Page 22: Well, I’ll Get Around to it.... WHO NEEDS AN ESTATE PLAN? EVERYONE!](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d925503460f94a79034/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
DIVORCE (continued)
A divorce terminates the right of a former spouse to inherit under the will.
A divorce or dissolution of marriage revokes bequests and devises to a former spouse – but not the will itself.
A divorce revokes the appointment of the former spouse as an executor or trustee under the will.
Watch out for insurance beneficiaries!
