Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
I am reading over a deed to a house and the two residents established "Joint Tenancy". However, nowhere does it say "With Rights of Survivorship". Does Joint Tenancy automatically imply rights of survivorship?

A valid joint tenancy deed does not require the words, "with rights of survivorship."
