It is essential that you receive competent and reasonable advice before establishing an estate plan. The plan must adhere to Nevada and Federal statutes as well as IRS schedules. In order to see that your wishes are properly carried out it is essential that you take the steps necessary to document and elect individuals in whom you trust to be your agents after you pass on. Your Trustee or executor will be responsible for taking over everything after your death like paying off debts, paying your taxes, and distributing the money as you designate in the will. Some things the executor will be in charge of also include paying the mortgage and utility costs of your home when you pass away. They will also be in charge of selling the home if that is in accordance with your wishes.
