Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Nevada

Survivors
We live in Illinois. Before we were married my husband and two friends bought a home in Las Vegas cash. Each contributed 1/3 of the cost. He is the surviving owner. He has now inherited the other two thirds of the property through the death of the two co-owners. Does the title passage mean I now have ownership interest in the property since it is effectively an inheritance? Or does it remain just his because he bought his portion before we were married.

This is just general information. No representations are made and no attorney client relationship is established by this communication. In most matters there are strict time limitations within which actions may be taken or your rights will be compromised. We are not taking any action on your matter and will not be considered your attorney or tax representative until both you and we have signed a fee agreement.

We, therefore will take no action on your behalf unless a written retainer agreement is signed. There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you do not retain SELIKLAW, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney or other advisor.
