What is the name of your state? Arizona
We are now residents of Arizona. Our will was made in New York State. I was told that a will made in New York state will not be recognized if one of us dies(married couple) in Arizona. We were told that our assets should be put into a trust otherwise, the surviving spouse will only inherit 50% of the assets the other 50% goes to the children.
1. Is our NYS will recognized in Arizona as legal?
2. Is it necessary to put our assets into a trust so the surviving spouse inherits all the assets?
