My question involves estate planning in the state of: New Jersey
I apologize if this is not the right place to post this or if this has already been answered.
I have a joint bank account with one of my grandparents. If this grandparent were to die, they didn't have a will and the other grandparent were still living, would the other grandparent be entitled to the money?
Another scenario would be if this grandparent were to die, they didn't have a will and the other grandparent was no longer alive, would the money be considered part of their estate?
Getting this grandparent to do a will would be a difficult task, is there anything else that can be done if the answer to either the above questions is yes, to ensure that this money becomes mine upon the grandparent's death and there could be no contesting it?
