Premarital Agreement
Final topic: the great veto power. Unless your spouse agrees to receive less than his or her statutory share of your estate, or you have a prenuptial agreement, you cannot disinherit your spouse from your IRA. The spouse will have to sign your beneficiary designation form if he or she is to receive less than 100% of your IRA.
Guardianship
Additionally, if the beneficiary is a minor, guardianship will have to be established in order for the minor effectively to inherit the real estate. There are other instances that may come into factor, which might not make use of the Non-Testamentary Transfer Property Act the best to use. Notwithstanding these reservations, here are some things about probate in Oklahoma that might be of interest to you...

Murder
Hi. I’m Jim Beauchamp, and I practice law in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I’m originally from Stillwater, where I met and married Fran. After we graduated from OSU in 1965, we moved to New Orleans where I attended Tulane Law School. In 1968 I graduated from Tulane with honors, then moved to Indianapolis to begin my two year Army career. I spent my second year in Vietnam as part of the Engineering Corps, where I worked for the commanding general, defended soldiers in various court martials – from possession to murder – and taught classes for the University of Maryland.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Whenever a person signs a trust, the question is usually asked, “what happens after I die?” Though I will try to list the duties of the Successor Trustee within the confines of this article, there is one assumption which I must make, and that is, that the decedent died owning no property subject to probate. Stated differently, all of the assets of the decedent must be part of the trust estate (i.e., owned by the trustee), or dealt with by contract (i.e., insurance with a designated beneficiary, IRA’s with death beneficiaries named, bank accounts with POD designations, and so forth; please review the article, “Tips in Estate Planning” for a further explanation on how a trust is funded). If there are property interests subject to probate, refer to the article, “Probate in Oklahoma”, which will give you some general information on the procedure and costs involved.
Wills
Smart estate planning involves more than having a will, even a complex one. Faced with restrictive privacy rules in health care matters, government mandated rules on how IRA and retirement accounts and annuities must be paid to beneficiaries (and related income tax rules dealing with beneficiaries), financial concerns over nursing home costs, and other financial privacy issues, estate planning is a bit more complex than in years past. You should take into account a realistic assessment of your net worth, the timing of how retirement plans are to be paid and used, and the possible impact of your future medical and living expenses – meaning, estate planning involves not only having wills and trusts, but also includes management of your financial resources while you are still living.
Trusts
Banks, brokerage houses, and insurance companies got to work, and devised all sorts of investment packages, to induce working Americans to invest in IRAs. All of this helped the financial industry. And those who invested in an IRA had a nest egg for use in retirement years. Living trust lawyers came in handy during the situation.
Power of Attorney
A revocable trust can’t protect you from creditors or give you any benefit if you need help on paying for nursing home costs. There are, however, other means of passing title to property without a will or trust (using a transfer on death deed, or POD bank account, or TOD designation for cars and boats). These techniques in property ownership don’t help if you are disabled, and for that, you need a durable power of attorney.
Probate

Tax Law
In addition to tax issues, the Successor Trustee should pay all the valid debts of the decedent from trust assets. However, in most instances the Trustee should not use insurance proceeds or retirement funds to pay for these debts. In addition, the Trustee should reimburse himself or herself for out-of-pocket expenses, and if the trust so provides, a fee for services rendered as trustee (if a fee is paid to the trustee, the trustee will have to pay income taxes for that fee). The trustee might want to discuss the topic of debts and fees with an attorney.
