Oregon Estate Law guides

All law guides →

Plain-English guides to the law. General information, not legal advice.

Asset Protection Planning in Oregon

Oregon asset protection involves layering — exemption planning, business entities, retirement accounts, and (for some) Domestic Asset Protection Trusts (DAPTs) in DAPT-friendly states.

Blended Family Estate Planning in Oregon

Oregon blended families need careful estate planning to avoid disinheriting biological children when surviving spouse remarries — QTIP trusts, life insurance, and specific structures address the conflict.

Business Succession Planning in Oregon

Oregon business succession requires coordinated estate + business planning — buy-sell agreements, life insurance funding, key-person insurance, and gradual transition plans. Without it, families lose businesses to taxes, disputes, or chaos.

Charitable Trusts in Oregon

Oregon charitable trusts combine philanthropy with tax planning. Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRTs) and Charitable Lead Trusts (CLTs) provide income / estate / gift tax benefits.

Digital-Asset Estate Planning in Oregon

Oregon digital-asset planning is governed by RUFADAA (adopted in 48 states) — fiduciaries can access digital accounts only if user explicitly consented. Without planning, families lose access to email, photos, crypto, and online accounts.

Spouse's Elective Share in Oregon

Oregon elective share: Lesser of intestate share or 25% of estate (modified UPC).

Estate-Tax Planning in Oregon

Oregon estates may face federal estate tax (40% above ~$13.99M / individual in 2025) plus state estate or inheritance tax — most estates use lifetime gifting + trusts to minimize tax.

Guardianship and Conservatorship in Oregon

Oregon guardianship cases — for minors, incapacitated adults, or both — are heard in Circuit Court (Probate). Process requires petition, evaluation, hearing, ongoing reporting.

Healthcare Directives in Oregon

Oregon healthcare directives: Advance Directive + POLST.

Heirs' Property in Oregon

Oregon heirs' property — land passed without a will or proper estate planning, owned by multiple heirs as tenants-in-common — has caused significant land loss in Black + low-income families. UPHPA partition reform helps.

Intestate Succession in Oregon: What Happens If You Die Without a Will

If you die in Oregon without a will, the state's intestate succession law decides who gets what — not you. Spouse takes the entire estate if all kids are joint.

Living Trusts in Oregon

A revocable living trust avoids probate, maintains privacy, and lets you control how your assets pass at death. Estates over $75K personal property + $200K real estate typically benefit most.
