In Nevada, you can use an Affidavit procedue if the gross value of the property doesn't exceed $100,000 and there's no Nevada real property (if spouse); $25,000 (for anyone else). (Gross value means that you do not deduct the mortgage or other leins on the property.) There is a 40-day waiting period.
There's a summary probate procedure if the gross value of the estate doesn't exceed $200,000, if the court approves, or if the gross value of the estate doesn't exceed $100,000, the court can set aside all property for the surviving spouse, domestic partner, or minor children, or if there are neither, to pay debts.
