Estate Planning Legal Questions and Answers

Quitclaim Deed
North Carolina
Taxes related to quitclaim deed?
I recently inherited a property from a family member. I was given a quitclaim deed transferring the title from them to me. I am trying to understand my tax liabilities related to this transfer of ownership. I am not sure if there are tax implications that I need to be aware of and I was hoping to get advice from a lawyer on how to proceed.
N'kia N.
A person who inherits property might be subject to taxes. This includes when the person receives a quitclaim deed for the property. However, the person's tax liabilities will ultimately depend in part on the location of the property itself. For legal guidance on the tax implications of inheriting North Carolina property, you might consider consulting with a knowledgeable North Carolina estate and tax planning attorney. Good luck!

Trying to become a poa
My uncle needs a power of attorney
Holly T.
A POA is best done through an attorney to ensure the verifying/interested parties are proper, the agreement includes what the principal wants, the principal is competent in case of a challenge and it's filed properly if necessary, for example if it will be used to transfer property. All persons should have a POA, HCPOA, Advanced Directives and Will. You can also pull the POA form out of the general statutes of NC. The form is included in the law.

Trust
Massachusetts
How can I set up a trust to protect my assets?
I am a business owner and have accumulated significant assets over the years. With the increasing risks and uncertainties in the business world, I am concerned about protecting my assets from potential lawsuits, creditors, and other unforeseen circumstances. I have heard that setting up a trust can provide a level of asset protection, but I am unsure about the process and the different types of trusts available. I would like to consult with a lawyer to understand how I can establish a trust that safeguards my assets while still allowing me to have control and access to them.
Joseph M.
There are numerous forms of Trust that are available depending on the specific assets and your unique goals. Generally speaking, the two main types of trusts are Revocable and Irrevocable. WIth a Revocable Trust, just like it sounds, as trustee you can remove the assets at some point if you so chose, but if you are to pass away or become incapacitated at some point, it reverts to being Irrevocable. An Irrevocable Trust is one in which the grantor transfers all ownership interests to the Trust itself and this act is irreversible. As I am sure you guessed, there are a myriad of ways that your goals can be achieved and I would be happy to provide a free consultation to discuss your situation and possible solutions.

Revoking power attorney
T. Phillip B.
Typically anything written which indicates you are revoking it should be sufficient. It should be delivered to your agent. I would also deliver it to any banks or other places where your agent may use the POA.

Need Will or Trust
Married must include both have children from previous marriage.
T. Phillip B.
Hi. I'm not sure I understand your question. Everyone should have a will regardless of whether you have a trust. The question is whether you need a trust. A lot of that has to do with avoiding probate or some other potential uses depending on the goals and needs. But a typical family would use a trust to better organize everything and control distribution while avoiding going through the court process called probate.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
