This website is designed to provide users with an overview of the probate process that governs how a Nevada resident’s property is distributed after he or she dies.

The probate laws vary from state to state, and significant differences exist between the states. Nevada is a Community Property state, and the property rights of a person who dies as a Nevada resident differ from those of a person who dies as the resident of a Separate Property state.

Mark A. Kemp, the author of the posts on this website, practiced probate law in Las Vegas, Nevada from 1982 to 2011.
