Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Nevada

Living Trust

My husand and I have been spearated for 5 years, but not divorced.

I have 2 properties in my own name and my name alone is on the loans. I would like to put these a properties into a trust with my 29 year old son as trustee - and leave the homes 50/50 to my 2 adult children.

I went to will attorney, who would do this for $1000.

Then I found Suze Orman's software where I do it my self - but the martial statuses didn't allow me go further - they were single, divorced or widowed. I followed married, but it led me to info about my husband etc.

My question is CAN I do this and how do I do it without spending $1000!

Thanks,

Re: Living Trust

Since Nevada is a communiity property state and not a title state you would need your husband to quitclaim the properties to you or your trust or have a separation agreement or Decree of Separation which says you have 100% interest in these properties.
