Legal Answers
6 Questions Answered
Q. I have 3 kids, I live with my boyfriend who I have one child with. What do I need to do for the house to go to my kids.
A: You should make sure your boyfriend is not claiming any interest in the house. Should you get married, consider a prenuptial. To fully protect your kids you should set-up a trust and put the house on the trust. Should you pass away, your trustee can keep or sell the house for the benefit of your children until they reach certain ages and receive their share.
Q. Can a 3rd party avoid/get out of a pre-incorporated company contract? Please explain. Thanks in advance! (Business Law)
A: The answer depends on the language of the contract and if there was any consideration and what has happened to the corporation, if anything?
Q. If I put a house valued at $7.0M with a $4.0M mortgage into a bypass trust, is my heir subject to estate
A: If the bypass trust was properly set up, there will be no estate tax regardless of the value.
