Nevada District Court probate under Title 12 includes full administration, summary administration, set-aside, and affidavit procedures. Real-property status, claimant identity, gross value, liens, and date of death determine the available route.
- Current NRS 146 distinguishes procedures: court set-aside may apply to an estate not exceeding $150,000; a personal-property affidavit generally requires 40 days and no Nevada real property, with a $150,000 cap for a surviving spouse and $25,000 for another claimant. Motor vehicles are excluded from the affidavit value cap under the statute.
- Property in another state, beneficiary designations, survivorship title, and trust ownership can follow different administration paths.

NRS chapter 163 supplies Nevada trust administration law, supplemented by chapter 166 for spendthrift trusts and other Title 13 provisions.
- Directed-trust law: Yes. NRS 163.553–163.557 recognize trust advisers, trust protectors, directed fiduciaries, and statutory allocation of powers and liability.
- A governing-law clause alone does not settle court jurisdiction, fiduciary duty, tax residence, creditor treatment, or another state's public policy.

Nevada's statutory trust period is generally 365 years under NRS chapter 111, subject to the statute's creation and exclusion rules.
- DAPT / self-settled protection: Yes, through Nevada's specialized spendthrift-trust regime in NRS chapter 166. A qualifying self-settled arrangement requires an irrevocable, discretionary structure and Nevada trustee/nexus; exceptions, fraudulent-transfer principles, and NRS 166.170 limitation periods prevent treating protection as absolute.
- Duration and creditor results depend on the instrument, creation and transfer dates, retained powers, statutory exceptions, and the law a court applies.
