When a person passes away, the family is left with the cumbersome task of settling the estate of the deceased. Essentially, probate and estate administration is used to formally transfer the real property, distribute assets of the decedent and settle all claims against the estate. If you were selected as the personal representative for a loved one’s estate, we can guide you through every step. In Minnesota, probate occurs when a resident of the state passes away while owning a property at that time. Formal probate is not always necessary after a person passes away in Minnesota. The probate process is required when survivor-ship rights have not been created, when real property is titled in an individual’s own name or when real estate is held as a tenant in common with another. Minnesota law generally requires probate for an estate greater than $50,000. If that person has real estate in other states, those properties are subject to the probate laws in that state. It is also important to remember that just because someone has a will, this does not necessarily avoid the probate process. Read Full Post

It would be preferable to be able to move on from a family member’s death without having to think about the allocation of property or the payment of debts, but, unfortunately, these things must be attended to.

When we have more distance from the time we currently live in, we will likely wonder why our society was ever anything other than LGBT-friendly. We have made strides in the right direction, but based on what we see on the news and internet, we still have a way to go. The progress we are making, though, is not due solely to the high-profile activists. Those efforts are supported by perhaps millions of people who do not receive public credit. And one strong example of advocacy is the law firm of Kallemeyn & Kallemeyn of Coon Rapids, MN. Read Full Post
