Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Nevada
Probate Will
I have 4 pieces of realestate - two in NV with one being my domicile and one timeshare, one in CO (land only) and NM (house & land) and a will. The realestate is in joint names. My husband had one savings account and 1 car in his name only. These total under $10K and do not include the joint property. Do I need to probate the will?

Re: Probate Will
When you say "joint names" do you mean joint tenancy with right of survivorship or could this mean, John and Jane Doe, as husband and wife, which would be community property. If this does not need to be probated because it is joint tenancy, then you don't need to do a probate.
