Who gets notified about the probate case in Nevada?

Nevada requires that documents from a probate case be mailed to certain family members, people named in a will or trust, certain creditors, and Nevada Medicaid. 

Even if a person is excluded from the will, they must still be notified about the case. This is to allow them the opportunity to contest the validity of the will. 

Failing to notify appropriate family members can jeopardize inheritances that are paid, if the person excluded comes back later for his rightful share. Therefore, while it is tempting in many families to exclude certain people to avoid problems, it is not legal and can cause more problems in the future. 

The family that must be notified include those named in the will, plus living parents, children, siblings, and grandchildren over the age of fourteen.
